Christians remember Easter as the time that Jesus died on the cross for all people everywhere, past, present and future, taking all their wrongs and mistakes (sins), hurts and everything, upon Himself. The empty cross celebrates His resurrection and victory over death, enabling us to also have eternal life.
Easter is the celebration of Jesus coming back to life, from dieing on the cross.
Easter is a Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. You drape the Cross a few days before Easter.
