The Christian life is worth living because Christ was raised.

If Christ has not been raised, the Christian life isn’t worth living. Paul makes it clear: if there's no resurrection, life is just about indulging in temporary pleasures. But because Christ was raised, we too will be raised, and that gives our lives purpose beyond the momentary. The resurrection changes everything—it’s the reason the Christian life is worth living! #Resurrection #FaithInChrist #ChristianLife #Purpose #ApostlePaul #Jesus #Christianity #Apologetics

Paul also says, "If Christ is not risen, our faith is vain, we are still in our sins." Considering that truth, why are virtually all Christians taught to believe they are not forgiven by God?
