ON “THE LAMB OF GOD”

In John 1:29, John used the image of the sacrificial lamb, represented many times in the Old Testament. Jesus is the perfect fulfillment of every time that image is displayed. Jesus Christ is the lamb slain before the foundation of the world. Jesus Christ is the animal slaughtered in the Garden of Eden to cover the nakedness of the first sinners. Jesus Christ is the lamb God would Himself provide for Abraham as a substitute for Isaac. Jesus Christ is the Passover lamb for Israel. Jesus Christ is the lamb for the guilt offering in the Levitical sacrifices. Jesus Christ is Isaiah’s lamb to the slaughter, ready to be shorn. Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God! That’s it!!!
