I mean, it would be pointless for the creator of everything to sacrifice himself, who is immortal and all-powerful. To me it seems that it makes much more sense sacrificing a sinless human (Jesus), God's only-begotten Son, to save mankind. The whole point of Jesus being sacrificed for mankind was to shed his perfect, innocent blood in the name of mankind to start things anew. If it were God himself, "manifested" as Jesus sacrificing himself, you would have a paradox since he created Jesus, and he is in fact God too, which is absurd in my opinion.
