Happy Easter- What does it really mean?

Most people in the US Celebrate EASTER. People give their own idea to it. Candy for children. Christians look at Easter, as Resurrection Sunday, is a Christian festival and cultural holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD. It is the culmination of the Passion of Jesus Christ, preceded by Lent, a 40-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance. Now does anyone even know what that really meant? Get ready for the highest truth about Jesus ever spoken.
