If someone was to ask you what you consider the greatest event in all human history, what would your answer be?

In my opinion, the greatest event in all human history, past, present and future is the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  Some might say the second coming of Jesus, but consider the words of the Apostle Paul:

1 Corinthians 15:12–19 (NIV)

¹² But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? ¹³ If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. ¹⁴ And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. ¹⁵ More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised. ¹⁶ For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either. ¹⁷ And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. ¹⁸ Then those also who have fallen asleep [died] in Christ are lost. ¹⁹ If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.

Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ, there will be no resurrection for us and there will not be a second coming of Christ.

That is why I consider the resurrection of Jesus Christ to be the greatest event in all human history – past, present and future.
