The Lamb

"And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!" (John 1:36 KJV). Look and seek! Run to the Lamb of God! Behold the Lamb of God has come. He has come for the just, the unjust, the righteous, and the unrighteous. God has given us His only begotten Lamb for the ultimate sacrifice. God became man with the full intention that His perfect physical body was to be offered up as a sacrifice on the cross. What man cannot do, nor books upon books or conference after conference, God made it possible by giving humanity freedom through the sacrifice of Christ that has fulfilled all other sacrifices. Jesus knew His destiny, and He came into this world, formed in a body, willing and ready to become a sacrificial Lamb of God for everyone of us. God saw how the blood of the bulls, goats, and the burnt offerings were not taking away the sin of man. "For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins" (Hebrews 10:4 KJV). Christ Jesus, our redeemer, came to bleed and die, as "a lamb to the slaughter", for you and I. Humiliation, suffering, and agony was put upon Him. Guilt and sin from everyone of us hung on Calvary's hill. Behold the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world! God bless you. Amen
