Aka Easter. The word may have been derived from a some Pagan God or Goddess, and I don't understand how any Bunny could lay eggs, and what that has to do with the day, but needless to say, I enjoy getting together with family and friends.
Jesus tells us to remember his death on the cross... he says, "Do this in remembrance of me"... not only should we remember his death, but we should remember his resurrection as well. That's what Easter is really about. Without the resurrection of Christ my faith would be meaningless. Why? God and Jesus made promises and all had to be fulfilled.
Read this article about the fulfillment of prophecy in Jesus' resurrection. Acts 2:31 also refers to a prophecy of the "Holy One" spoken of in Psalm 16.
Jesus was more than just a prophet, and by his death and fulfillment of over 300 messianic prophecies, he is the Savior. That's what we are celebrating and that's what is important.
