Human, he could bear human sins. Therefore, he did not offer sacrifices for himself; he offered himself as the final sacrifice. There will never be the need for another.

“A Christian political theology is discovering what it means that, through the resurrection, Jesus is the world’s true Lord. Ridiculous? Of course. It was in AD 35 and it is today. But actually, it makes sense – historically, culturally, philosophically and even dare I say politically. We’ve tried all sorts of other stuff recently and got fairly stuck, haven’t we? But actually, that shoulder-shrugging pragmatism, though it might alert people to the fact that normal western scepticism may not have the last word, isn’t enough. It is possible to argue historically for the truth of Jesus’ resurrection. I and others have done so and the case is remarkably good.” – Dr. Tom Wright, Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity
