You have 2 assumptions above to research. Jesus is a great teacher and abides in God-consciousness as a divine Son. Jesus is not the Universal Father who alone is the most high God, but is a Creator-Son, the creator of this local universe and our world
so in this sense Jesus is 'God', being the creator, sovereign Lord and savior of all souls in the worlds of his creation. Jesus is 'God' to us, but we understand this in light of the divine hierarchy. Jesus is Savior not as a blood-sacrifice, but savior of men in every other way as the way, truth and life of God to us by whom we partake of all God has for us. Understanding UB Christology is helpful here.
See:
Christ-Michael of Nebadon
We've covered the blood-atonement concept
here and elsewhere.
Jesus teachings stand upon their own merits, whether you believe he is a god or man, or some confusion of the two. As shared before.....it is a life of repentance, humility and faith in God that avails.....not merely trusting in shed blood to evoke some magical effect. God honors faith, worship, trust, obedience to his will......
doing right. That is atonement. The rest are only rituals, symbols, metaphors to inspire or convey the truth of restoring oneself to God and his eternal laws.
