Lent 2015 February 27 by ric Gustafson
John 1:29 says that John the Baptist exclaimed ' Look the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world'.
Jesus is the Lamb of God. God did one last plague to convince Pharaoh to let the Hebrews go free. All the first born in the land from animals to people were to be killed. God told the Hebrews to kill a lamb and smear the blood over their door frames. The angel of death would see this and pass over the house. Every year Jews celebrate this as Passover including a meal that includes lamb.
Jesus became the Passover lamb. Jesus always protects us during our life of sin and points us toward a life in him. That life is eternal life.
