Jesus’ death on Good Friday wasn’t just a random event or some law-driven requirement—it was the intersection of political agendas, religious tension, and deep spiritual purpose. As he prepared to die, Jesus told his followers not to be troubled, because he knew what was coming. The world around him was full of messiah-hopefuls, violent revolts, and religious leaders trying to preserve power. Unlike others, Jesus refused to fight, withdraw, or compromise. He stood silent when it would have saved him and spoke only when it sealed his fate, showing that he was in control all along. From the garden to the cross, his choice to love, not retaliate, changed everything. This Friday isn’t just about what happened—it’s about who really held the power, and why Jesus laid his life down.
