What on hell are you on about mate? Today is Good Friday when people thought that death had defeated Jesus. On the Third Day, Easter Sunday he rose again and conquered death and death shall never defeat him again.

Since you posted you story I will post the facts:

On Easter, Resurrection Sunday, we celebrate the greatest day in the Church's year - Jesus rose from the dead. There is such a stark contrast from Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
On Good Friday, Mary and the Disciples were faced with greatest tragedy - the murder of Jesus, his humiliating death on the cross. To them, it was the end - death had won. Jesus was therefore like any one else - how could he be the Saviour, if he was conquered by death? Today, the angel of the Lord has told the truth - Jesus is risen! Jesus is truly Risen! Death has no victory over him. Jesus is the Saviour. Jesus is truly God.
For Christians, death does not conquer us, death is not the end. After the cross, after suffering and pain, after hurt, confusion and anger, after the many questions, the searching, the giving up... the answer is clear. Death is not the end. There is Resurrection. There is hope.
Jesus has bridged the gap from heaven to earth, from death to life, from mortality to immortality. We have a new and eternal life in Heaven with God. Thanks to Jesus. This is why Easter is the greatest day of the Church's Year.
As we celebrate Jesus' Resurrection from the dead and await the sending of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, may we follow the example of Mary and the Apostles who gathered in prayer. May we all devote more time to prayer in our daily lives.
Death, O death, where is your victory?
Jesus is truly risen.
He has conquered death. He has given life.

Romans 6:9 - Christ has been raised from death and will never die again - death will no longer rule over him.
