If the resurrection is false we’re screwed because then Jesus is not who He said He was and we’re still responsible for the penalty of our sins.
That’s how important it is.

Since we all are going to bow our knee to the guy who was resurrected, it probably has some importance.
One issue regards the hope we have given us that one day we will be provided a resurrection body which is immortal.

For Christians, there would never be any good news or salvation.
All things good come from Him.
Blessed Happy Easter everyone.
He is Risen!

"God loved the world of sinners so much that He sent His eternal Son from heaven to die for sinners. (John 3:16)" The text in Greek says so = thus, in this manner (outos-Gr.) and not "so much" ('osos -Gr.), check a concordance.
The point of the text is that God's love for the world (Cosmos -Gr.) is that he sent his Son to die for Believers, literally "all the believing ones."
Believers are those who see (by faith the kingdom) John 3:3, and enter, (by faith) John 3:5. The cause is being born again. The order is that one is born again and therefore believes.
Jesus teaches that being born again is a spiritual resurrection of the soul John 5:25, a work of God not dependent on man. That those who come to him by faith do so because they are given to come by God's grace and drawn by it. John 6:65, 44.
So, do you believe in the resurrection of dead souls unto faith and salvation by means of faith, which is what Jesus teaches, in like manner to the resurrection of the body, which is also not dependent on man or is your confession incomplete?

I agree with you very much. He gave his life for our sins.

Maranatha, and please, Lord, will you put that Psalm 2 thing into effect real soon? The Principalities and Powers need mowing again.

Shame on me for watching Fox, but I like the special they're replaying again this year on the life of Jesus.
I should be checking EWTN for their LIVE schedule.

Simply enough: The Truth of His resurrection will determine how many of us spend eternity.
