the ultimate "sacrifice" regarded as most supreme due to the uniqueness of its impossibility, its - undoability - the giving of one's live for unknown unrelated others: an ideal, iconized as non-human, IMPOSSIBLÉ ! UNDOABLE !
an act not naturally done by any 'sane' living human person! Especially dying for ungrateful unrelated usually unfriendly strangers and worse foreigners from despicable vermin infested countries!!!
Jesus Christ (was claimed to have) done that.
'DIED' so others may have Life...
'Die' is naturally a human act but the dying of Jesus was (from related texts)prearranged(again if relevant 'holy' text is true) that in his giving up of life, he (supposedly) redeemed that Grace all Man lost, lost with no effort on the part of Man !
Original SIN of Human kind was an uncommitted SIN one which humans did not do, did not actuate, did not commit.. BUT yet is still saddled with, thus REQUIRING (according to CHURCH) the Father to sacrifice HIS only begotten son..

Given that this were factual - Jesus died - that all Man may 'live' hereafter i.e. despite dying a physical life all Man will continue to "LIVE"
Yet how would the common fella in the Mall relate to this sacrifice supreme as most are able, interested & concerned, with making it in the here the now & the perhaps aim of: "hey that guy's so good-looking...." or "...wooa the mobile phone that chick has is real HOT maan"?
Due to his (claimed) divine nature as son of God - would not the associated greatness, magnanimity, plus the (un-human) "charity" of "dying" for unknown "others" be discounted as nothing effortful, extraordinarily sacrificial or any big deal at all ?
From the perspective of Man, limited by very insufficient 'space' for greater inputs especially on non beneficial, ethereal, not consumable, unrealistic theological gobblee-gook - yaaawn(need anymore emetic?)would that superhuman act performed by a certified superhuman (no less a ceritified only begotten SON of GOD himself)be anything "wow"?

It would have been the greatest act if he had been only a MAN
with only ONE life to so gloriously volunteer be extinguished.
An ordinary mortal like everyone else!
Even then it might not be regarded so.
Thus for a god a son of god, would the dying be so great & so to be revered, to be given such high honor and even worshipped ?! Almost daily Nations lose their sons & daughters in WARs and other patriotic ventures. How come these sacrifices did not merit or receive such ACCLAIM?
AND 'worse" after a few days, he the son who so gloriously "...bled and died for no sin of his own..." gets alive again - sounds like fun ya?
(so visually, viscerally portrayed by moviedom complete with all the gory emoting flesh tearing thorn whipping 'urrggghs')
Thus if god (as in a divine persona) comes (in human form) then "dies" and resurrects - some folks, not only just atheists, or morons with limited 'cerebral spaces' but even normal thinking people with a small bit of rightness in the IQ processing, as also 'giants' with astropherical IQs might/would characteristically, disrespectfully, disregard that "great" act with: "Big Deal"?
Thus the concept of the divine, a god; coming to "DIE" for us, to restore the god-human connect says & signifies little-
THAT might've been the failed point of CHURCH -
"....how god gave a life - DIED - for unknown unrelated undeserving others.
Out of nothing but LOVE ..."
Looked at in the light of foregoing - it is a major FAIL.
The fact as earlier stated - "No Big Deal" - playing up a "sacrifice" with as much "sacrifice" in its value as flicking a fly or maybe cooking a meal -
ordinary no-impact acts, ordinary people do every day with no second thought.
The fact for one seeking HIM is NOT the Greatness of the act of dying for Man, NOT the pain & suffering that is so often portrayed to perhaps mistakenly emphasize the "generosity & total giving" of the act.

It is the DESCENT of GOD to man's level - that undoable humbling , the atypical not to be expected degrading lowering of TRUTH of PURE of DIVINITY, that REGAL destructive "act" of PERFECT making ITSELF 'fecal' to mingle with "man" a baddd word by himself - a comparatively despicably abhorrent creature, so lowly in the divine scale of ROYAL TrueBlueBloodiness!
It is the act of a master to "slum" with His "slaves" - it is an act of a CEO of "GOOD Foods" wallowing with the swine in their own "whatever swines wallow in"
It is the great ancestor of the Dynasty stepping DOWN from on HIGH the THRONE to extend a connect to a 'vermin contaminate'
That is and should rightly be the pivot of our devotion to God.

It is the 'ultimate' on which our love & devotion to Him rightly should be based!
Our strength in faith is and should be rightly centered on His ASSENT to come DOWN to us.
The gory, aspects of Easter plus the guilt evoking "sent His only son to die for us .. Plus the lovey-dovey teen aged syrupy sell so-oft brought up of how "...He So Loved The World That He Gave His Only Begotten Son ..." is only A SELL a sales Pitch- a kind of RECRUITMENT poster to swell the ranks of organized religion perhaps with misdirected intent of Strength in numbers and sadly perhaps for monetary life support of the Organism the human Church ! while all the time the SELLER - CHURCH is reiterating HE - GOD has no need for man's devotion. Which cannot be more true than a fact.

True devotion to HIM has no necessity to implant guilt laden faith nor provoke a spiritual indebtedness for a "favor" so impossible to repay that believers are forever beholden Yes HE has no need - neither do Man need repay HIM but -
"the second collection today is for the ----"
oh welllllll.
