Why then was the cross necessary?
Why not just tell people to do good works?

If your heart was truly transformed by the Holy Spirit you would not be asking these dumb questions over and over. In any event James answers your question. Read the opening post.

Why was Jesus sent to the cross?

Originally posted by @karoly-aczelIf sedition is the verdict (point of view) of the government then ~ in Roman times ~ then that's why the accused would be executed by crucifixion. The suggestion that he was crucified for "helping the poor" ~ like whodey has been suggesting ~ is absurd and ideologically driven.
Sedition is a point of view.

Originally posted by @karoly-aczelYou and billions of others may believe this to be so, and maybe he was, but the reason he was executed by the Romans was sedition and not because he was "telling the truth of spirituality".
He was telling the truth of spirituality.
