It turns over until the battery dies. (Cold weather). We tried jumping it after the battery died but all It would do was turn over still.

How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes? Get the battery charged. Have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage and check fuel pressure.
