Jesus didn't die. He was raised by God, and will return. When he returns, he will marry, smash the cross and kill swine. He will follow the same God that he taught the Jews to follow, yet he will becoming the living embodiment of the Laws enshrined by Muhammad. Peace be on them both.
AnswerFrom a Christian perspective:
If He didn't die then He didn't also rise from the dead.
If He didn't die then He didn't atone for anyone's sin.
If He didn't die then effectively the whole of Christianity is a fraud and a fake.
If He didn't die then it is important to explain how a revived man only two full days (three in Jewish reckoning) previously crucified and with terrible injuries which could not possibly have healed properly could convince anyone that He was the one who had victory over death and sin.
If He didn't truly die then He was a deceiver of the highest order since everyone, including the Jews who hated Him and the Roman executioners in charge of the carrying out of the sentence of death were tricked.
From a logical perspective:If you are a prophet of God, sent down by God, then your 'death' need not take place. God is All Powerful - He sent Jesus (peace be upon him) with the Great News for the Jews, by IMMACULATE CONCEPTION. So, God in His power can take the soul or body or both of a prophet BACK TO HIM at any time. This point negates the subsequent points made 'from a Christian perspective' that appear above.
The idea of 'atoning for sins' is baseless in monotheism. It is one that has been taken from polytheistic teachings. LOGICALLY speaking, God intends that man follow a righteous path. God does not give free rein to mankind to commit all kinds of sins, large or small, and then come back to Him, simply on the basis that 'Jesus loves you'. Who is Jesus above God anyway? What did Jesus create? Creation is with the Creator, God Almighty.
Now, consider that Saul of Tarsus was an enemy of Jesus and his teachings. Think about it for a while - an insidious, deceitful type, his 'enlightenment' on the road to Damascus, and his self proclaimed 'Sainthood' goes a long way to helping us understand just HOW MUCH THE TEACHINGS OF THE GREAT PROPHET JESUS were distorted by human, and unGodly, influence. Saul (later Paul) was a clever politician, who managed to show the way for the Roman polytheist power base to nip the ONE GOD teachings that Jesus' followers were calling people to, after Jesus had returned to His Lord. In this way, a 'New' Christianity came about, ratified at the Council of Nicea under the very polytheist Constantine. And this is the Christianity that we now know today, something that is very much tainted with Polytheism - festivals, weekdays, catecisms of 'Father, Son and Holy Ghost' - and ROMANISM.
JESUS WAS BY NO MEANS A DECEIVER, BUT PEOPLE LIKE PAUL, WITH HIS ULTERIOR MOTIVES, WERE.
God Almighty has absolutely no difficulty in tricking a few Roman guards, or the whole Jewish nation should HE so choose.

The resurrection is what is important, but you can't have a resurrection without first having a death.
The Bible, of course! The cross, which Jesus died on.
There is no mention of her at all in the Bible so we must assume she died when Jesus was quite young.
The crucifiction is important, as it was when Jesus died on the cross for al mankind that sin was abolished. And there is no need to sacrifice any animal for our sins.Jesus died as a sacrifice for sin. To receive forgiveness for you sin you have to believe that Jesus is the son of God and that he died so your sin can be forgiven
Jesus Christ and the Bible; because Jesus died for our sins and gives us eternal life; and the Bible tells us this and that Jesus loves us.
It was chosen by Christianity because they ought to follow their model who has died on the cross,but was resurrected and glorified.It was clearly told by Saint Paul in (1Corinthian 1:18)-For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
