Both events are quite crucial to our faith. I would gather that His death is the critical event here because without it, there would be no atonement for our sins. We would be in the same bind as we were from the time of the law. The resurrection is more of a sign, a proof that He was, and is, divine.
God Bless

His resurrection, definitely.
Jesus died as an "exchange" or "ransom" for the first man Adam, whose disobedience had brought the penalty of death upon all men by the process of heredity. This made Jesus "the 2nd Adam", and the one righteous act of sacrifice which he performed brought about the "free gift" of justification of life for all mankind.
Jesus' resurrection means that we are no longer under the dominion of death and more importantly the power of sin. We are now alive in God through what Jesus did. "For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus" (Romans 6:9-11).
Jesus' resurrection allows those in Christ's to be raised in glory and power with a spiritual body (1 Corinthians 15:42-44).
"And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we bear the likeness of the man from heaven" (1 Corinthians 15:49). Indeed this is something to eagerly anticipate in the future.
But for now, Jesus' resurrection means that he is alive interceding on our behalf before God the Father .

Thats like asking if water or food is more important. The two are inseperable. Equally important. His suffering and death reveals the depth of God's love and his resurrection shows God's defeat of evil.

his death , Nisan 14 and resurrection Nisan 16.
IT IS the seventh day of the Jewish month Nisan in the year 33 C.E. Imagine that you are observing events in the Roman province of Judea. Leaving Jericho and its lush foliage, Jesus Christ and his disciples are trudging up a dusty, twisting road. Many other travelers are also on their way up to Jerusalem for the annual Passover celebration. However, more than this tiring climb is on the minds of Christ's disciples.

i think of they're hoping that he would not exist so as that they could proceed to lead the sinful existence that guy desires. they could desire to start up with countless the various money owed interior the Bible of all people who suffered God's wrath for turning far flung from Him. I additionally think of that an incredible lots of the persons on listed here are inquisitive approximately God, yet have not got any thought a thank you to bypass approximately it. Immature and ridiculous solutions to actual questions - attempting desperately to make somebody else supply up believing. i do no longer realize it, yet I do sense sorry for them. For myself, i did no longer seek for Jesus until I lost each and every thing. There are those people that could desire to be hit excessive with a sledgehammer to realize that He needs us to come again to Him, He needs to forgive.

I'm gonna say his death, because that single act is what reconciled us to the Father. I don't think His ressurection had that affect by itself. Also, the ressurection was the easy part. Jesus didn't have to die, which means he had to willing walk into that awful death. How many people could have done that.

You can't separate them as it pertains to us. No death no forgiveness. No Resurrection no life with God in heaven forever.

In order for Jesus to be our Savior and fulfill the prophecy of the Bible you can't have one without the other. Praise be to God

I would say His death because if He didn't die for us, then His and our resurrection would be a moot point.
