Every time I have shared to one of Christ it is solely based on the fact that Jesus rose from the dead. Quite effectively it is, I might add for Paul himself taught only this...
1 Corinthians 2:1-2 (NKJV)
1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (NKJV)
3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,
Paul taught and proclaimed only Christ crucified as this is the standard as a Christian I seek to model.
