Behold The Lamb of God!

On this Good Friday, remember the woolen thread stitched like ageless embroidery into the fabric of Scripture by the needle of God’s grace.

  1. The Bible opens by showing us the necessity of the Lamb (See the stories of Adam, Eve, and Abel in Genesis 3:21 & 4:3).
  2. Abraham shows us the provision of the Lamb (Genesis 22:13-14).
  3. Exodus describes the slaying of the Lamb (Ex 12:6-13).
  4. Leviticus prescribes the spotless character of the Lamb (Leviticus 22:21).
  5. Isaiah shows us the personality of the Lamb (Isaiah 53:7).
  6. John the Baptist identifies the Lamb (John 1:29).
  7. Philip shows us the transforming power of the Lamb (Acts 8:32-38).
  8. Peter described the enthronement of the Lamb (1 Peter 1:18-21).
  9. Revelation tells of the worship of the Lamb (Revelation 5:6-13).
  10. The Bible ends by describing the eternal city and endless reign of the Lamb, and the everlasting life of those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life (Revelation 19:9 and 21:22-22:3).

O Jesus, Lamb of God, Thou Art
The Life and Comfort of my heart.
