Well, congratulations. That means you have a reliable testimony about 
someone who did not provide an atonement for your sins, and who did not 
rise from the dead. Such a person saves no one.

Good News †

Our debt to God was nailed to the cross where Christ died for our sins 
(Colossians 2:14), and God demonstrated this fact by raising Him from 
the grave (Romans 1:4). Now, God remains perfectly just while forgiving 
those who put their faith in Jesus (Romans 3:26) and sparing them from 
future wrath (1 Thessalonians 1:10). It is a free gift for everyone who 
believes (Romans 6:23). Trust in the Lord and call on His name to 
receive salvation (Romans 10:9-13):
