The resurrection is essential to the faith of Catholics because, if Jesus did not rise from the dead, then he did not conquer death. If he did not conquer death, then he did not pave the way for us to conquer death. If we cannot conquer death then this life is all that there is. There is no hope for an after life with God. There is no resurrection of the body on the last day. There is no definitive end to suffering, and evil, and death. There is no union of man with God. There is no grace. There is no Church. There is no sacraments. There is no Pentecost. There is no outpouring of the Holy Spirit, no spreading of the Gospel message. Without the resurrection, the devil has won and mankind is finished.
