Why is having a relationship with Jesus Christ important?

Answered in 1 source

A relationship with Jesus Christ is vital as it assures us that nothing is worth losing Him over (2 Corinthians 4:11).

Gabe Stalnaker emphasizes in his sermon that having Jesus Christ means possessing everything of value. Our ultimate goal as believers is to know and persevere in our faith in Christ, despite the trials we face. Nothing in this world can compare to having Him, which is why He is the focus of every believer's ministry. In 2 Corinthians 4:11, Paul talks about being 'delivered unto death for Jesus' sake,' highlighting the importance of valuing our relationship with Christ above all else, even our lives. In Him, we find true life, purpose, and fulfillment.
