Why is it important for Christians to remember the resurrection after Christ's death?

The resurrection of Christ is a cornerstone of Christian faith, highlighting not just His victory over death, but also the promise of eternal life for believers. In Matthew 17:23, after foretelling His death, Jesus assures His disciples that He 'shall be raised again the third day,' which is a pivotal assurance that death is not the end for those who believe. This resurrection reinforces our hope as we navigate life’s difficulties and remind us that our trials are temporary. It anchors our faith, providing confidence that just as Christ rose, we too will be raised in glory. This victory over the grave is a powerful motivation for Christians to live in faith and share the hope of the gospel with others.
