This is a personal opinion.

Philippines is a predominantly catholic country. I would have began this blog with Philippines is a predominantly Christian country but the Holy week thing is really mostly practiced by catholics. We, being Pentecostal Born Again Christians do not really celebrate or commemorate it the way the Catholic churches and faithfuls do.

While the catholics really practice a lot of stuff what we do is to just pray. And thank God for having done everything for us. Imho, Jesus Christ has already done all the things necessary for our salvation. It’s just that we need to have faith in His saving grace and believe that what He did is all we need. We do not need to add more. We need to believe in Jesus Christ and follow His commandments. No more, no less.

Faith without work is useless, true. But do we indeed believe in Him? Maybe this holy week we ought to ask ourselves that.

Have a meaningful days of retreat.
