Jesus, the Lamb of God: The Sacrifice for Our Sins
Manage episode 445577404 series 3596768
Imagine a soldier who throws himself on a grenade to save his comrades, sacrificing his life to protect others. In a similar but infinitely greater way, Jesus laid down His life for us. His death was to redeem sinners, reconciling us to God. This sacrifice demonstrates Christ’s boundless love, as He took the punishment that rightly belonged to us.
The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, ‘Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!’” (John 1:29) This verse highlights Jesus’ unique role: He is not merely a teacher or prophet but the sacrificial Lamb who bears the burden of sin.
“…saying with a loud voice, ‘Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!’” (Revelation 5:12)
