Overview

It is said that Jaroslav Jan Pelikan, a leading scholar in the history of Christianity and Sterling Prof. Everett of history at Yale University, on his deathbed confessed this: If Christ has not risen from the dead, nothing else matters. If Christ has risen from the dead, nothing else matters. I came across this quote in my research for the “Apologetics Together” courses that I offer on social media and was immediately awed at its profound implications. Indeed, if Jesus has not risen, we must agree with Saint Paul that the world remains in their sins and are eternally lost. However, since Jesus has risen, those who have placed their trust in him are assured of salvation and eternal life. This book looks at the prophecies and fulfillment in the Scriptures which assure us that he who died on the cross at Calvary rose again on the third day for our justification.

Praise for Nothing Else Matters

“Nothing Else Matters is an essential tool for the Christian to answer the challenges posed by our postmodern world. Dr. Almodovar destroys the lie of our age—‘All reality is a construct’—demonstrating that death is the inescapable reality that all face, and that our only hope is found in the bodily resurrection of the God-man, Jesus of Nazareth. A valuable resource for the church—to strengthen her lambs and reach those outside her walls.”

—Jeff Damec, Evangelical Catholic and Senior Marketing Executive
