He could have stayed in heaven on His throne, living the life of luxury, but He came down to this horrendous world humbly as a baby, born to a virgin. He grew up living a humble life right next to those who would one day kill Him. He loved, loves, and will always love us and because He loves us He grew up here on earth and lived to die. He was rejected by the people that He came to save. When He grew to be a man, those He came to save crucified Him - because He was perfect and they felt threatened by Him. They put Him on a cross, putting nails through His hands and feet and a crown of thorns on His head. They mocked Him, and spat at Him.They beat Him to the death and as if that wasn't enough, they stuck a sword through His side to make sure He was dead. He did that to give us forgiveness of every single sin committed by others, to give us - the people who killled Him - forgiveness for our mistakes. Jesus' sacrifice was His life for all, which is why Christians live their life for Him. He is the creator of the universe yet loves and died for us. People become Christians when they accept this sacrificial gift by believing in Him, admitting they have sinned and are not perfect, and that God is the one and only God whom we need.
ANSWERChrist made no sacrifice he was a God and the seed conceived by the power of the Spirit of God that was made by the Holy Ghost, Jesus was the representative of Christ.We all wear a Spirit that is the power of life within our body, and we each develop Intelligence which is the ghost being invisible, and we are clothed in the body made from the dust of the earth which contains all that we are, so we are all four in one and one for all, as we are not the body, not the spirit, not the ghost but we are what has been filled to hold all. When Jesus asked Peter, whom do you say that I am? Peter answered, thou art the Christ the son of the living God. and Jesus answered and said, flesh and blood did not reveal this to thee. Jesus was not conceived by the knowledge or ghost of the earth being carnal nor by the power of sensuality. Jesus when asked by Phillip to show him the father, Jesus answered and said, have you been with me this long and still know not the father, the father is in me and I am in the father. Gods don't do what they want to do but that which they have to do being directed by who they represent, and they represent all that they are. We all originally came from GOD and when we die each different part of us will go back to that God from where it came. the earth is a god it provides for us that which our bodies are and need. Jesus being more Spirit and Ghost was their representative on earth to show us what we are made of. When our ghost is anointed with the Intelligence of it's originality it to becomes whole and can fill every fiber of the being as does the spirit. We are all created to have an image of The Gods.
For the purpose of sacrifice . The catholic alter also symbolises sacrifice of JESUS CHRIST.

Yes. According to the Catholic Church, it is the single, eternal sacrifice of Christ made present again by the celebrant, who acts 'in persona Christi' (in the person of Christ) by virtue of his ordination to the priesthood.
Jesus of Bethlem (Christ) is the Lamb/son of God. The "lamb of God" is Jesus Christ. He is considered the lamb because he was slain as a sacrifice for our sins.
There will be no more last suppers on earth. The last supper reminds us of Christ's sacrifice, and that by faith in him, we can dine with Christ for all eternity.
Simply it is same because Christ offer his life for many or in the Eucharist he divide his body among many.
