"For this is how God loved the world: He gave his unique Son so that everyone who believes in him might not be lost but have eternal life." John 3:16
The implications in the Bible is that Jesus died for all of our sins and if he has not died the world would have ended because God was displeased with the human race.
This is explained in the next paragraph:
It (his death) was for all the world. He tasted "death for every man," Hebrews 2:9. He "died for all," 2 Corinthians 5:15. "He is the propitiation for the sins of the whole world," 1 John 2:2.
This is a peculiar logic, Why would God have to sacrifice his only begotten son to "save the world" if God held the world's destiny in his hands?
As the Atheist Pig points out, Jesus was resurrected and the Holy Ghost lived on.
