John 19:31 “The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was a high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.”
Jesus died as God’s Passover Lamb at the appointed “Preparation Day.” He is God’s appointed Savior, our only hope of having our sins forgiven or ever gaining admittance to Heaven.
