Tengo que pecar, si no Jesús se habría muerto por nada/en vano.

Se entiende y está bien, pero no creo que sea tomado como una buena excusa.

Yeah, I thought he was happily married, too. - Sabor, Jul 17, 2011
Who was happily married ? - FELIZ77, Jul 17, 2011
Suppositorily (sic) :) Jesus was married. But being married and/or having sex isn't inheritly bad... or a sin. ;) - chileno, Jul 17, 2011

Can we consider Tengo que pecar, si no peco Jesús se murió por nada?

Or is this ok Si no tengo que pecar, Jesús se murió por nada?

That one is also correct, but on the assumption that the sin you are talking about is true. Or that's the way I understand the phrase. - chileno, Jul 17, 2011

Yes, that sounds about right, although I suppose you could also say "Tenga que pecar, si no Jesus se ha muerto por nada," but not "Tenga que pecar, si no Jesus se habrá muerto por nada."
