What does it mean that Jesus gives His life for the sheep?

Answered in 1 source

It means that Jesus sacrifices Himself to ensure the salvation and safety of His followers.

When Jesus states that He gives His life for the sheep, He is referring to His sacrificial death, which provides atonement for sin and secures salvation for His people (John 10:11). This act is rooted in His love and commitment to His flock, and it highlights the nature of true leadership in the church—self-sacrifice for the well-being of others. Through His death and resurrection, He guarantees the eternal security of His sheep, showcasing the cornerstone of sovereign grace theology: Christ's work on behalf of the elect.
