The RESURRECTION was NOT on SUNDAY! - Herbert W Armstrong - April 1954

Herbert W Armstrong

Christ did not rise on Easter! Neither the Apostolic church nor the churches of Gentile converts under Paul observed Easter - but pagans, centuries before, did! No truth was ever more shocking! But your own Bible PROVES IT! Jesus said He would be three days and three nights in the tomb. (Mat. 12:40). Can you figure three days and three nights between sunset "Good Friday," and sunrise Easter Sunday? It is commonly supposed, today, that Jesus was crucified on Friday, and rose from the dead at sunrise Easter Sunday. It would seem that for the past 1600 years no one, until recently, ever questioned, or sought to PROVE this "Good Friday-Easter" tradition. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
