🐑 ”The next day, John sees Yeshua coming to him and says, “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!“
‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭29‬ ‭TLV‬‬
🐑This statement made by John is one that it absolutely ASTOUNDING! In essence, John is declaring that Jesus is the Messiah, our Passover lamb. There is so much context that we need to look at in this verse to have a full understanding of the significance of this title as Lamb of God. So many people today don’t have a great understanding of the #oldtestamentand miss out on SOOOO MUCH because of their lack of understanding!!! In the #torah we read about how a lamb is used in many different sacrifices and rituals: the Passover lamb offering, sin offerings, guilt offerings, atonement offerings on Yom Kippur… the list goes on and on and if you are NOT familiar with these concepts I suggest and ask you to consider the fact that you can’t fully get Messiah’s message and mission without knowing the WHY behind it. Too many Christians nowadays dismiss the old testament as irrelevant: and I believe this is one of the biggest mistakes that we can do as Christians. It is arrogant to think that the Old Testament, which is the Word of God, is less significant because it happened before Messiah came. I have also heard many people say that we don’t really need to look at Leviticus or Deuteronomy or numbers as much as other books in the Bible, because Jesus fulfills the Law… but how can we know how to praise and honor the Lord when we don’t even know what He fulfilled? This has been a relatively recent revelation I had myself a year and a halfish ago and I felt the Spirit move in my heart this DESIRE to understand and love the words in the #torah I pray that this #verseoftheday moves your heart to dwell on the words found in the #oldtestament and that it opens your eyes to the fact that Jesus is in it all! #verseoftheday #lambofgod #passoverlamb #jeshuamessiah#readyourbible📖 #proverbs31wannabe #biblicalwomanhood#biblicalparenting
