It is rare for somebody to lay down his life even for a righteous man. God demonstrated the magnitude of His love by dying for a world of sinners. We are reconciled to God by the death of His Son, and saved by His life (resurrection).
The ultimate demonstration of love is for one to give of himself for another - to die for somebody. This death may not always be - may never be - physical. I can die for others by giving of my time, my energy, my money, etc . . . "with all your heart, soul, mind, strength." I find my life when I lose it.
