Jesus had to be crucified on Thursday, not Friday.
Here is a mystery: Jesus could not have been crucified on Friday. There is no “Good Friday” but is a tradition of man that does not look closely enough at the word of God. We can prove that it was Thursday on the calendar we use today by several things but I’ll use one way to prove it.

Unto the pure all things are pure…
This verse is terribly misunderstood. The common interpretation of it puts a check in the spirit of those called to present the body of Christ to Jesus as perfect. Why…? It’s because the common interpretation is that we should always see all things as pure, or to only concern ourselves with what is pure in others and the world ignoring the evil…and if we don’t, it’s because we are impure. This is dangerously wrong and here is why: The clear meaning can be understood by contex
