Why Do We Have Good Friday?

Startling Conversation. The other day I had a non-believer stop me and start a conversation that went something like this, "Hey, I think you have a pastor's heart. Can I ask you a question?" And then my friend went on to say something rather startling, "Tell me why would anyone force their religion on another person who might not want it!"
What was my answer? It went something like this, "What if I told you what you're asking is not a question of religion or one over another? What if I told you all religions are man made thoughts from men's imaginations? What if I told you that God is not a religion, but is every-day-for-REAL? What if God simply wants you to know Him? That's why I tell people about Him!
Visitor Retention Program. Kingdom's Visitor Retention Program (VRP) makes telling this Good News of the Gospel very easy. What is this Good News? It's that God wants you to know Him and has provided a way to do that! VRP provides simple every day activities for fulfilling the Great Commandment and doing the Great Commission.
- Easily inform your community about Jesus and the greatest Gospel message of all time
- Present the Gospel to friends, family, and neighbors without saying a word
- Spread the unfathomable love of God to all your hurting community
- See more salvations from death to life
No Hype. I could hype you about the inexpensive cost and 100% money-back guarantee, but God’s guarantee in Isaiah 55:11 far exceeds that. Let’s skip the worldly stuff and cut to the chase. Ask yourself the most important question: “How much value do you place on just one soul saved from hell to heaven, and restored to the Lord?”
God’s Heart. Jesus’ heart of love breaks beyond what words can describe for each soul that dies without forgiveness of sins. If we were to feel His hurt, we too would weep in sobs in such love. Time is VERY short, and God is using all means, such as young children and bizarre events, to spread knowledge of Him.
Heaven’s Critical Question. Four year-old Colton Burpo, from the book Heaven Is For Real, asked his dad, pastor of their church, this question right in a funeral, “Dad, did that man have Jesus in his heart? You can’t get to heaven without Jesus in your heart!” No other question compares even the slightest to that one!!! We MUST ASK this question of everyone for whom God gives us the opportunity.
Hell’s Reality. Bill Weiss, from his book 23 Minutes in Hell, reveals for 23 minutes he had more than just an observational vision. The Lord removed all knowledge of his being saved, and placed him in hell to suffer actual torments in utter hopelessness of never escaping. Many unbelievers either joke about hell or do not believe in it. Sadly, many Christians don’t either. (Article cont'd.)

Pastor W. joined the Kingdom Visitor Retention Program and gave it one of its greatest compliments. (Actually the compliment doesn't really go to the VRP program or its instructors, but to Pastor W. himself and his church.) About half way through the program, he commented that he had been attempting to educate his church into doing outreach and had been unsuccessful for over 10 years. But upon taking his church through the friendliness exercises, they became very friendly with visitors on the inside. Friendliness became very comfortable to do. With natural ease, they took their friendliness to the sidewalks outside the church. And voila, just like that, the whole church started doing outreach! The community was all buzzing over the changes in his church. In a few short weeks, the VRP program did what a decade of sermons had attempted to do!

Are we doing all we can to spread the Good News of the Gospel?
God’s Instructions. God instructs us simply to inform people concerning Himself. That’s our job. God is for real! Simply say so! It's His job then to bring our hearers to belief and repentance. Plain and simple. That’s it! That's all!
Why Do We have Good Friday? In Colton's words, he said Jesus told him it's because Jesus wanted to make a way for people to see His Dad (God the Father)! Doesn't that simple answer wipe away lengthy treatises by hundreds of theologians piled up over many centuries!!!
