EITHER the "Good Friday, Easter Sunday"tradition is a fable - or yo u ha ve NO Savior! J esus gave onlyone sign to prove that He was the Messiah! And that sign wasthe length of time He would be dead and buried.Notice Jesus' own words concerning the ONLY SIGN thatwould prove His Messiahship:"An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign;and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophetJonas: FOR AS JONAS WAS THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS INTHE [FISH's] BELLY; so SHALL THE SoN oF MAN BE THREEDAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE HEART OF THE EARTH"(Mat. 12:39-40).If He did not fulfill that sign, then He was an impostorand you are without a Savior!Of course theologians and scholars den y that J esus fulfilledthis sign. They say He was in the heart of the earth only oneday and two nights - half as long as He thought He would be!And in so doing they deny the ONLY PROOF Jesus gave that He isthe Messiah, the Savior of the world.lt Was Prophesied!Did you know that it was prophesied that peop!e woulddeny this sign- would deny that J esus actually is the veryChrist?Turn to the Scripture: "But there were false prophets alsoamong the people [in Old Testament times], even as there shallbe false teachers among you [Christians], who privily shallbring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that boughtthem ... and MANY shall follow their pernicious ways" (II Peter2:1-2).The MANY are today denying their Savior by believing atradition that rejects the only sign Jesus gave to prove He isthe Messiah!Did you know that it was not until after the death of the
8 The Crucifixion Was Not on Fridaylast of the twelve apostles- John- that the "Good FridayEaster Sunday" tradition began to spread through the churches?How Long Dead and Buried?Let's examine J esus' own words, recorded in the gospels, tofind out if He meant what He said about the sign of Jonas. DidJ esus really expect to be buried in the earth for three days andthree nights?Notice Mark 8:31: "And He began to teach them, that theSon of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of theelders, and of the chief priests and scribes, and be killed, andAFTER THREE DAYS rise again."Did yo u grasp that? J esus did not say "after a da y and ahalf." J esus said, "af ter three days."Consider! If Jesus were crucified and buried late on "GoodFriday," then one day after would be Saturday evening, andtwo days after would be Sunday evening, and three days afterwould be Monday evening. But Jesus rose long before Mondayevening. Either Jesus was not crucified on "Good Friday," or Hedid not fulfill His sign and He is therefore an impostor and notthe Messiah!Did Jesus fulfill His sign? Turn to Matthew 28:6. Here isthe testimony of the angel: "He [Jesus] is not here: for He isrisen AS HE SAID"! Jesus did fulfill His sign, exactly as He saidHe would. He IS the Savior. Then He could not have been crucifiedon "Good Friday"!But this is not all. Turn to John 2:19,21: "Jesus answeredand said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days 1will raise it up .... But He spake of the temple of His body." lfJ esus would ha ve been crucified and buried on Friday eveningand been resurrected on Sunday morning, the temple - Hisbody- would have been raised in a day and one-half. But Jesusdid not say it would occur in a day and one-half. Not even intwo and one-half days, but IN THREE DAYS' TIME -72 hours.In other words, in exactly three days and three nights, at theprecise moment, three 24-hour days after bis death and burial.Isn't it plain that J esus meant exactly what He said?- threedays and three nights, not parts of three days.But Jesus also declared He would rise "the third day."
