As a Follower of Jesus, some things are more important than others. Romans 10.9-10 The work of Jesus, what he did, is essential for our salvation. The What Matters. Christianity rises and falls on the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The resurrection matters because it makes forgiveness and salvation possible. Does The What Matter To You? To Paul, it matters that we believe, but it also matters what we believe. The salvation from Jesus has both context and content. What is asked of you? What do you ask of people? What is asked of you? Believe and Confess.
