Isaiah 52:13-53:12 He will be exaulted and made very high. He will first be marred more than any man. All we like sheep have gone astray, and the Lord will make to light on him the iniquity of us all. He will be despised and rejected. He will lay down his life as a lamb and make atonement for our souls." written 700 bce some predictions do come true-its a miracle doubled

Jesus had to die to answer the LORD's question,
"Will he walk in my way?" Jesus hosted the message or "The Christ" to the end of his life, giving his life willingly that others may see his exsample and make themselves worthy through him.
There is no greater love that a man can have than to offer and give his life for a friend. The Lamb of God is worthy to open the Book of Life because he held to the end.

You folks have no clue! News Flash: Messiah means "Annointed One" Yeshua was annointed with Spikenard Oil by his wife, Mary of Bethany, prior to his entry into Jerusalem. it meant that, being of the House of David, he was about to become the next King of the Hebrews. It was all part of the Hebrew Prophecy. That's why he chose to ride the donkey into town, it was also spelled out. He had to fake his death by crucifixion in order to escape the wrath of the Romans being that he was accused of treason by the Romans and crucifixion was their punishment for treason. Read a book once in a while, it'll do you some good. (Jews for Jesus - Yeah, Right?)

From Muslim perspective, the Messiah (Jesus son of Marry) was sentenced to death, and people thought that he got executed on the cross. It was made to appear to them that Jesus (pbuh) was killed and crucified. However, he was raised to heaven and is there, and will descend at the appointed time, end all wars, and bring peace to the world.

They were trying to kill him cause they couldnt stand hearing the truth, that they were on the wrong track etc.
He didnt die, he looked as if he did. That just calmed everyone down. And then they felt sorry for what they did I guess...but Jesus did not die.

God requires a Blood atonement, In the Old testament, the offering of sacrifice was that of a lamb, But that only attoned your sins from year to year. Jesus had to be crucified for our attonement ONCE & FOR ALL, & not from year to year. So he took upon himself all of our sins, & shed that blood as our sacrifice.

The messiah died so you and I don't have to...He is the eternal God who loved us eternally, and allowed for Himself to pay the price on our behalf so that we may not die.
Yet because of His eternal power over death, He ressurected after three days so that we may too resurrect with Him in the last day and be reunited back to Him in life.
I hope this helps...God bless.

The Messiah has not died because He has never been on earth. Read the Torah in Hebrew (non-translated), and you'll learn why.

The Messiah has not come yet.
The Jesus you talk of did not fulfill the prophecies.
