You read Harry Potter book 7 and don't understand why the killing curse didn't actually kill Harry in the forest Was it because of the wand or because he was dying to save the world?

It was because the killing curse actually "killed" the part of Voldemort inside Harry, not Harry's soul itself. It only killed the part of Voldemort's soul, and that's how come Harry had an option to live again with just his own, pure, untouched soul. Also, it was because of Lily's sacrifice for her only son, it mentions in the book that because of the sacrifice :Lily made, it kept harry tethered to life, and Voldemort seeing as he used harry's blood but it didn't work after all the horcruxes were destroyed (not sure why...) EDIT: JKrowling recently added some information about this event on her website. Voldemort could not kill Harry bacause the wand Voldemort used, was actually Harry's, so it wouldn't hurt its owner. It only hurt the part in Harry that was not his. This is also why the cruciatus curse wouldn't hurt Harry, because the wand wouln't hurt his owner.
