Passion & Pain: Holy Week in the Pamanga

Click here for one tourists account of these festivities.

Althought I find the whole ritual fascinating, I am not impressed. Could I do such a thing? As painful as it looks like, I think consistently dying to yourself daily is much more difficult. Bearing the cost of discipleship is more difficult. I thank God, because of the Cross, I do not have experience eternal hell, which is not about physical suffering, but rather all about being totally separated from the Father. That is what made the cross so painful to the Son. Happy Holy Week to all.
