Hi Owen. im gonna give you 2 verses of so much more in the Bible that may answer ur question. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life." John3:16. And "For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost." Luke19:10.
humans are sinners and because of that they deserve the death (not only physically but also spiritually). but thanks to Jesus, to his sacrifice, by his blood we can triumph the spiritual death and live eternally in perfect peace. "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." says Romans6:23
