Jesus’ death and resurrection is important because of why He died.
He died for us. We’re born as sinners. We live lives that are offensive to a righteous God.
Though we have the inbuilt desire to be justified, we fall so far below God’s standard there is nothing we can do to be right with God.
But He loved us so much, He decided to send His only Son - Jesus - to live the perfect sinless life that we could not.
Then He sacrificed Himself on our behalf. In believing in Jesus, His righteousness is accounted to us and we are made right with God. The implications of this are incredible but I won’t get into it.
Jesus came to the earth preaching this good news (the gospel). And this news is a good story, but the crux of what makes it true is that He was resurrected by God.
His resurrection validated His claims. Believing in Him has transformed millions of lives because God’s Spirit dwells inside of His people when they believe.
By His Spirit for millennia, starting with His own disciples, people have done tremendous feats and have been willing to die to share this news with the world.
AFAIK other religions requires their followers to sacrifice to their god(s). In Christianity, God sacrificed Himself for us - out of love.

TL:DR; Repent and believe in the name of Jesus.
