Alive

What significance could the death of a man 2000 years ago possibly hold for me? Why does the empty tomb even matter? Even if I do trust in Jesus and believe He did rise - what does that mean for me when I die? The resurrection of Jesus Christ is essential to Christianity. The apostle Paul tells us if Jesus did not rise from the dead, there is no point in believing in Him because there is no hope to be found in Christianity. The death of Christ only matters if He rose from the dead and is alive today, reigning in Heaven. And His resurrection means that we have hope and God has a plan for all of creation.
