What is your question?
I was driving my car, when it suddenly died-engine stopped working. I tried to start it, and it sounded like it wanted to turn over. A few weeks ago, I found that my oil had been empty, which never happens, and my engine was making a "knocking" sound (I know it was stupid of me not to check my oil)As soon as I realized this, I put new oil in and had an oil change. Would this cause my engine to die? Do I need a new engine or a timing belt?

just had same prob. oil gone. think its timing belt or ignition control module recall.
Your engine suffered irreversible damage due to no oil. Not worth repairing.
same thing happened to me with a 2001 Dodge Intrepid (DO NOT GET) except i had fluids in mine and was maintained pretty well. heard the knocking, two weeks later it died coming home and where it stopped was the final resting place for that P.O.S, costs more to fix than its worth. i think it is also DOHC problem with sludge build up. cause i made sure i had enough oil all the time.
You might luck. Check the fuel pump FIRST. it may have gone out. and add the app amount of oil..
