| 0:00.0 | When did our Lord Jesus Christ die on the cross and when was the Eucharist, the |
| 0:06.4 | sacrament of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ instituted this time of year when we get to |
| 0:11.5 | Good Friday and to Easter, all these experts, all these scholars, |
| 0:16.0 | come on TV, they write articles for big name magazines, and they assert, well, maybe Jesus was never really born, |
| 0:22.0 | or we don't know when he existed or when he actually |
| 0:24.8 | died or if he even rose again. |
| 0:27.0 | And so I've put together a video finding the historical date for the death of Christ. In other words, in what year, at what day, and at what time did |
| 0:37.5 | Jesus die on the cross. And from that, we can compute when he instituted the Eucharist and also when he rose from the dead. |
| 0:45.1 | And we can use scripture, tradition, church fathers, but we can also use modern computer |

| 1:26.7 | the Church Fathers, medieval philosophy theology and history and then |
| 1:30.8 | reformation, counter-reformation and modern Catholic history and theology. |
| 1:35.8 | Also courses on the Old and New Testament. |
| 1:38.6 | And what you're about to see is a class from our church history curriculum. |
| 1:44.0 | So it's on the historicity of the death of Christ, finding the year, find the date, and also |
| 1:49.0 | the importance of us Catholics having a historical and personal connection to the events of the |
| 1:56.8 | passion of the death and of the resurrection of our Lord. So may you have a blessed and happy Easter and I hope this lesson is |
