If Jesus didn't die for the sins of the world, then how is He any different than Moses?
What attributes His Messiahship different than Moses' prophethood?

Jesus DID die for the sins of all mankind. How so? Adam sold everyone into sin. He forfeited everlasting life, Acts 5:12 says, for everyone. Jesus lived WITHOUT sin. Thus under the mosaic law, he had the right of everlasting life. He died without sin. So when he entered into heaven, he could present the VALUE (ransom) of his right to everlasting life to buy back what Adam lost. 1 Corinthians 15:45 - So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living person.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
1 Corinthians 15:21 and 22 - For since death came through a man, resurrection of the dead also comes through a man. 22 For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive.

Can I just say, even though I'm an atheist, that Moses was a pretty cool guy? I like him more that Jesus.

many. Mose is a great prophet. Jesus is the Messiah and God´s son.

Jesus came to uphold the law not destroy it. Moses transmitted the law.

Another contradiction in the NT. Jesus first is made to say he came to bring peace. Then he is made to say that he came to bring a sword.
