he must fulfill the prophecy of Daniel 9:24-27.
"There are seventy weeks that have been determined upon your people and upon your holy city, in order to terminate the transgression, and to finish off sin, and to make atonement for error, and to bring in righteousness for times indefinite, and to imprint a seal upon vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies.
25 And you should know and have the insight [that] from the going forth of [the] word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem until Mes·si´ah [the] Leader, there will be seven weeks, also sixty-two weeks. She will return and be actually rebuilt, with a public square and moat, but in the straits of the times.
26 “And after the sixty-two weeks Mes·si´ah will be cut off, with nothing for himself.
“And the city and the holy place the people of a leader that is coming will bring to their ruin. And the end of it will be by the flood. And until [the] end there will be war; what is decided upon is desolations.
27 “And he must keep [the] covenant in force for the many for one week; and at the half of the week he will cause sacrifice and gift offering to cease.
When he baptized was in the 69th week and at the half of the week of 7 years (3.5 years ) he must died.

No, not really. It's not how long he lived, but HOW he lived, and especially when he died, that he rose from the grave on the morning of the 3rd day.
Remember, He was tortured under the hand of Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried all to pay the penalty for OUR sins (crimes against God).
The Bible even says that even though Jesus had never known sin, yet He actually became sin, trading places with us and taking our place on the cross. THAT is a demonstration of just how much God loves us, not that we loved Him, but that He loved us and gave His life as a ransom, the righteous for the unrighteous.
Will you put your trust in Jesus and repent of your sins? Or will you reject His offer? "How can we escape judgement if we neglect so great a salvation?"

Yes. There is a time prophecy mentioned in the book of Daniel that speaks of JESUS' first coming until HIS death.
It would have made a HUGE difference!
Read Daniel 9.
GOD bless

I have to agree with Moises_F. He is right on the target. It would make a huge difference. Daniel's prophecy specifically targets exactly when Jesus Christ, the Messiah, would arrive or start his ministry and when he would die or be "cut off."

Absolutely.
The New Testament of the Bible would likely be twice as long as it is now.
More years, more miracles, more stories, more Passover feasts, etc.
Jesus would likely have updated some of the stories he told like the Prodigal Son story.

Are you referring to St. Irenaeus? I think he also mentioned Jesus had a house in Jerusalem, and was corpulent. And he was one of the first Christian authors. The earlier you look at Christianity, the dumber it seems.

well for one thing he would have finished what he set out to accomplish namely destroy the human perspective of god... and religion.... he is said to be a hero and died for the sins of man... because he was murdered before he could expose the lies of the church.... the only sin of humanity is religion and being so dumb as to voluntarily sacrafice their only life to slavery...

Jesus would not have died but lived as the king if he was not crucified, because no sin was in him to cause death.

He was gaining more and more popularity and it was a worry to those in power at that time....They had to get rid of him soon.

No.
Irenaeus thought that he was in his 50's.
