Who said anything about the meaning of humanity?
I'm saying that, if one assumes that your assertions are correct, then the only important reason for a Christian to sacrifice his life to save another's is because God said you should do that. You may not agree with that statement in the accusatory form I said it, but you agree with the spirit of the statement, if you have to ask how a person could self-sacrifice without God telling you that doing so is good.
