Paul wrote that, unless Christ rose from the dead, our faith is in vain (1 Corinthians 15:17). Through his death, Christ saved mankind from bondage to sin, and He destroyed the hold that death has on all of us, but it is His Resurrection that gives us the promise of a very Blessed and Happy Easter.
