I would guess fuel pump is not pumping fuel..

But if your absolutly certain , then you proabably dont have spark

Coil packs maybe... check for spark off each plug. if you know how to do this..

Try to grab some codes off your computer from a mech. it might suggest a route to check..

check and see if u got spark, then fuel. Do u have keyless entry? ur theft system maybe messed up and it lets the car crank but not start
