Why is the death of Jesus important for Christians?

Answered in 2 sources

The death of Jesus is crucial as it accomplished the complete salvation of His people from their sins.

The significance of Jesus' death cannot be overstated in Christian theology. According to Scriptures, like John 12:24, unless a grain of wheat falls and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. This speaks of how Christ's death was necessary for the salvation of His people. When He died on the cross, He not only bore our sins, but He achieved our redemption in full, allowing for our reconciliation with God. It's through His death that every attribute of God is glorified and satisfied. Thus, for Christians, the death of Jesus is the foundation of our faith and the assurance of our salvation.
