It's Friday. By this time Christ was already nailed to the cross. The sky was dark as the Son of God hung there suffering not only the anguish of the world's sins but also the temporary separation from His Father. He will soon be dead.
Put into a tomb that belonged to another His fate was cast. His followers bewildered by the events scattered.
Fearful someone would steal the body and claim Jesus had risen from the dead Roman soldiers were told to stand guard over the tomb. Isn't it ironic that the only people that thought He might return were the very people that killed him?
Christ had told the disciples that like Jonah in the belly of the big fish for 3 days He would be gone but would return.
Things fell silent on Saturday. What will Sunday morning bring?
