There are many who disbelieve the resurrection, both in Jesus' day and in our own. The fact of the resurrection, however, is the foundation upon which all of Christianity either stands or falls. To be a Christian, simply put, is to be a witness to the resurrection of Jesus. Because Jesus is risen, everything in life can make sense, and we can have hope. As Paul would put it, if Jesus is not raised, then our faith is in vain, and we are still in our sins. Praise God that He is risen!
