I think it is deeper than this, Adam ate from a fruit tree and needed christ to die
He would not have had to die for a few reasons.
1. He did not love us so much, and he made us all perfect and if we sinned, so be it, the ones who lived a perfect life would get to heaven (we would all have to be born as Adam was created, perfect. with the ability to not sin, the the ability to sin)
2. we could be sinless.. which means we NEVER work out of the flesh (for self gain) EVER. (whether God loved us or not)

Well, the Bible does have the answer.
ECCLESIASTES 3
1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 A time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to get, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 A time to love, and a time to hate;
a time of war, and a time of peace.
Regarding Christ's first come, Scripture says: WHEN THE FULNESS OF TIME WAS COME...

It is true if our first parents had not sinned then their would be no need for Christ to die. But then our first parents would not die either for the wages of sin is death.
Perhaps creation would of stayed the same and we all would meet our God in the cool of the day. No need to go to heaven as it would be known as the place that God resides in.
But to say that by the law of Moses and the commandments of Christ were followed that you would enter heaven is a lie.
Jesus said that no man comes to the father except through him. Christ is your only justification. To put it bluntly good people go to hell.
The short story of our parents show a loving God coming to the aid of his children who are held in bondage for a ramsom.
The first thing our parents knew was their nakedness in other words they became self aware and not God aware as they once were.

Animal sacrifices only ever provided a limited atonement...
They had to be repeated over and over again for individual sins AND no animal sacrifice EVER saved anyone...
Animal sacrifices were however a vital reminder that sin could only be atoned for by death and the shedding of blood, and, were a shadow for the ONLY death and shed blood that can provide salvation - namely that of Jesus Christ's crucifixion...
If you want a sacrifice that means something - look to Jesus Christ!
