Doesn't having a relationship with Jesus help one to "remember" even more? A relationship is like BAM right there in your face and there is no remembering, there is only LIVING...
See after the cross of Jesus , there was Simon Peter who went right back to his old job of fisherman , as Jesus showed up at the shore of the sea were Peter was fishing , and called to Peter , and Jesus told Peter to continue ministry for Jesus over a fish meal at the shore ....... So Christians should have a fish meal of Friday to remember their ministry with Jesus ......
To remember at Easter the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, Christians are to eat fish.
There is no such command or suggestion in the New Testament that Christians are to eat fish to remember the crucifixion of Jesus. Instead, Jesus Himself instituted the eating of bread which represented His body, and wine which represented His blood in remembrance of Him.
Luke 22:17 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He said, "Take this and share it among yourselves; 18] for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes." 19] And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me." 20] And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.
Why substitute your own ideas in place of how Jesus said to remember Him?

don't think there is any official requirement that Christians of any kind "eat fish" at Easter---in fact in some traditions lamb is the Easter dish (to recall the "Lamb of God"). the fish is often regarded as symbolic of Christ because the fish was regarded in early Christian times to refer to Christ (the Greek word "ichthys"/fish was used as an "acrostic" for the phrase rendered in English as "Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior")---a way during times of persecution to proclaim faith in Jesus.
OTOH, on Good Friday many Christians fast and abstain from meat (i.e. food with red/warm blood) as a sign of sorrow and penitence for the shedding of Jesus' blood on the Cross for our sins.
as Mike posts out the ultimate remembrance of Christ and His sacrifice is follow His command "to eat My flesh and drink My blood" in the bread and wine of the Eucharist (literally "thanksgiving")/Holy Communion.
in the peace of Christ.

You were banned last year from another religion forum in which in the general religion section you were claiming that ''The spirit of Ama said that this is to remember the death of Jesus Christ.'' Doing a search on 'the spirit of Ama' came up with 'the spirit of Ama Boza Wakhona.'

By the way, you made the following claim on yet another forum. ''The spirit of Ama revealed that Jesus was crucified on 08-17, a summer day, and not in March or April. His revelation is correct. The year is 1 BC.''
There's no shortage of people who insist on substituting their own ideas in place of what the Bible actually states.
The Bible actually state "is": "This is My body which is given for you; ("is" means "is")
The Bible actually state: "a participation in" \ "a sharing in" \ "a communion of" -1 Corinthians 10:16
Substitutes state:
Represents: "This represents My body which is given for you;
Transubstantiation: " "This is My body which transubstantiates and is given for you;
“Capernaitic” eating (literally in a cannibalistic sense) "This is literally My body which is given for you;

My mother is allergic to fish. I guess she is going to hell because she can't eat it on Good Friday.
Seriously, this is a new one. Does the OP own a fish market or something? LOL.
