So if Jesus' body was still in his tomb after his death would you still believe? If his body was still where it was put after 3 days and not gone...what would you believe?

Perhaps there were grave robbers and they disposed of his body. Where are his earthly remains? Oh, by the way, I am not a kid.

Then we would know He wasn't who He said He was.

Of course not. That's the whole point, and the test of Jesus' divinity: could death hold him.
IF Jesus wasn't the Christ, of course we wouldn't believe in Him.
If you read the Gospels, you will see that that exact concern was brought to Pilate: that grave robbers might steal Jesus' body, and claim that He had been resurrected. So a roman guard of 2 or 3 soldiers was stationed outside the tomb to make sure that very thing didn't happen.

If his body was still in the tomb after 3 days none of us would have heard of him.

What I believe by the meaning of your question is that YOU my friend are in need of a serious dose of shock treatments. Because the "so called" Biblical question that you pose is the type of question that would only come from the brain dead. And I'm sorry to inform you that without a properly functioning brain you have no hope of salvation. Oh well, Praise God!!

Well, the Bible tells us many shall come in His name. It would not have happened the way you want to trick us to answer here. Jesus came and fulfilled the Law!!! The Old Testament describes exactly what would take place, which it did to the tee take place where Christ is concerned.
Why is it so hard for you all to understand this? Did you all get Fs in History/Government class in high school?

No, His words would have meant nothing if one of His prophecies didn't come true. If He never rose from the dead then the old testament scriptures about the Messiah wouldn't have been fulfilled either. No, His resurection from the dead was the grande finale of God's great plan to honor Jesus and show us that His promise of eternal life is true.

If His body had still been there, then I guess no! because then He wouldn't have conquered death, hell, and the grave! But He did!!! That's whats awesome about My Lord!!!

Thankfully, I don't have to live in imaginations. I have found the truth. He is risen from the dead, and has made Himself known to me, by His Holy Spirit, who lives with me.

i would not believe in christ ,, the bible even says that if christ has not risen from the dead our preaching is vain, and that we should eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we die. but christ did rise from the dead and is in heaven in power and glory so i am a believer.

Isn't that the whole point? Jesus DID rise again. He beat DEATH ITSELF! How many other Gods claim that one?
