Easter is the most important day for Christians. When Jesus left his tomb alive forevermore it meant there is a great, real hope for whosoever puts their trust in him - to come back to live forever in a corruption-free, eternally peaceful world. The request of the Our Father will finally be answered - Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on Earth as it is done in Heaven because Christ will reign here as King forever.

But without the Resurrection there is no Christian faith, there is no forgiveness of sins by the Cross of Jesus. This is what Paul explains in 1 Corinthians 15:13-19

There would also be no Gospels without the Resurrection of Jesus. There'd have been no conversion of Saul of Tarsus. He would not have ever become Paul the Apostle who endured endless suffering to proclaim a faith he once vehemently tried to destroy. And especially no Jesus Christ returning to Earth to decide the eternal fate of the living and the dead.

But Jesus did rise from the dead. His Spirit did empower his disciples, especially the cowardly Peter who denied Jesus three times even with curses and oaths at his trial only two months before. He became the most forceful spokesman for Jesus to the people and their rulers. He did that to the point of death decades later in Rome, hanging upside-down on a cross.

Anyone who humbly turns to God and puts their faith in this resurrected Man who died for man's sins will find out personally whether the Christian faith is true or not.

May the divine blessing of Easter be yours today!
