Christians around the world have just celebrated Easter. In Christian tradition, Good Friday is the day when Jesus Christ was crucified and rose again two days later on Easter Sunday. In Christian faith, the two events are inseparable.
In his attempt to explain about Easter, Reverend Christian Tirtha, Staff Chaplain at Heathdale Christian College in Melbourne thinks that the chaos of today's world can be described as the consequence of the separation of humans from their creator.
Reverend Christian Tirtha explained the meaning of Jesus' death through crucifixion which in Christian faith is associated with God's work of reconciling the broken world, which will eventually bring about the salvation that humans need. And for those who believe in Jesus, one day they will be resurrected and live in a new world. And Jesus' resurrection can be said to be the prototype.
