Around the world beginning at midnight of the third day, Orthodox Christians have been screaming, shouting, and exclaiming the good news that Christ is Risen!

The day of the week we call Sunday, what was then the day after Sabbath, now becomes The Lord’s Day, the Eighth Day.

Jesus, the God-man has died in the most heinous and horrible way imaginable, on a Roman cross. He has entered the unsuspecting realm of Hades and released all mankind, past, present, and future from Death’s grip.

Christ is Risen!

Indeed, He is Risen!
