OK I have two answers for you, one is about the trinity, the second is about how Jesus died and the orgin of the cross.
The trinity say's that Jesus, God and the holy spirit are all the same. But the truth is (and what the Jehovah's Witnesses believe) is that there is Jehovah God who created everything (Psalm 83:18), Jesus who is God's only begotton son (John 3:16) and that God's holy spirit is what God uses to get things done, whether that's Prophets writing scriptures (2 Timothy 3:16), curing people through Jesus (Mark 5:29-30) or helping people through difficult times (Acts 7:55-56). Most people will quote John 1:1 which has been mistranslated in most Bibles (and most Jehovah's Witnesses would be able to show you how), but even without that the rest of the Bible all show's that Jesus and God are two different beings (John 14:28, Luke 22:42 and many more)
The Jesus actually died on a stake and not a cross. The original Greek word used in the Bible is 'stauros', and means an upright pole. The cross has pagan origins and comes from the north where it was used for the sun god as a cross (usually in a circle), and the south where it was used for the god Tammuz (the initial of the gods name). The reason was to make it more acceptable among pagan worshipers. With the cross being used so much it has become something now unquestioned by most, but it is in fact an idol which God told us not to use (Exodus 20:4, 5, 1 John 5:21).
This all happened (both the trinity and the cross) about 3 centuries after Jesus died.
This is very brief, you're best having a free Bible study with a Jehovah's Witness and you'll learn alot more about what the Bible really say's about everything.

The Bible teaches that without the ransom sacrifice of a perfect human --Jesus Christ-- mankind would never be able to live up to our purpose. The following set of articles explains this in more detail ...

Under the rule of God's kingdom Jesus will be able to forgive the sins of all persons who love and serve God. He has been given the Authority to forgive sins of people This means that all aches and pains and sickness will be removed. No one will ever have to grow old and die ever again. This is a wonderful hope for a truly wonderful future! Jesus died for our getting the opportunity to receive this real life that we can have without any death sickness or pain, this is how Jesus made it possible to our being able to receive these blessings of God's promises in (Revelation21:4)

Jesus died for the salvation of mankind. To undo the terrible and selfish wrong Adam the first man had done in the Garden of Eden. Jesus died a righteous and sinless man who was loyal to his Father Jehovah.
Jesus as like Adam were born perfect humans but unlike Jesus who proved to be loyal to his Father Jehovah, Adam was disloyal and through his selfish sin brought death to all mankind who all inherited sin through birth.
Jesus Christ's criminal death around 4 thousand years later paid the price of Adam's sin so those repenting of their sins can be saved to eternal life on the basis of Jesus's sacrifice.
This is a rather simple answer but it is early morning and still awakening.

Jesus died on a stake, not a cross. Where in the Bible does it say Jesus died for the trinity? Nowhere.

You don't even know what non-witness Christians believe. You need to study more before posting such a question.

Jesus Died for our sins not the trinity
The trinity is God's three parts:Father,Son(Jesus),Holy Spirit.
