* Mark 16:6 ' And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen he is not here: behold the place where they laid him'. * Mark 16:5 ' And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment and they were affrighted'. * Mark 16:4 ' And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great'. * Mark 16:3 ' And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?' * Mark 16:2 ' And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun'. * Mark 16:1 ' And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him'. Mary Magdalene, very early in the morning before sun rise and after the Sabbath (Saturday), went to the see Jesus, and he was not there. Saturday night Jesus was still in the grave. Saturday day Jesus was still in the grave. Jesus was crucified on Friday, this is certainly known among all Christians, and that is the reason for calling that Friday by 'Good Friday'. Now let us see if this prophecy came to pass. Jesus here emphasized what will happen to him by specifically saying that he will be like Jonas in terms of the number of days and nights he will be in the heart of the earth, ' For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth' (Matthew 12:40). Matthew 12:40 ' For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth'. Matthew 12:39 ' But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas'. Matthew 12:38 ' Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee'. The details are shown in the following verses:

Jesus also made sure to specify what exactly this sign was. When the people were asking Jesus Christ if he was going to show them a sign, He replied by saying that the only sign that they should expect is the sign of Jonas. The Post Crucifixion Prophesied Events never happened: So the above verse shows that when Jesus asked of God to ' let this cup pass from' (Matthew 26:39) him, God respond to his prayer and saved him from death or crucifixion.ģ. The word ' heard in that he feared' (Hebrews 5:7) mean that God granted him what he requested. Then Jesus went a little further way from them and prayed to God as in Matthew 26:39 ' And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt'. Jesus at this point talked to Peter and the two sons of Zebedee as in Matthew 26:38 ' Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me'. Peter and the two sons of Zebedee were with Jesus Christ before the elders of the people and the chief priests came to take him to crucify him. Willingness of Jesus Christ to Die for Our Sins: Let us investigate this topic from the Bible, and find out whether Jesus was sent to be crucified or that he was crucified:ġ. In other words Jesus had died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins.

One of the fundamental beliefs of Christianity is that Jesus had died and allowed for the shedding of his blood for the sake of granting forgiveness to people.
