John: Behold the Lamb of God

Aloha and welcome to The Mission North Shore's podcast! In this passage of John 1:19-34, we see John the Baptist point to Jesus as 'the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world,' we're confronted with a profound truth: our Savior came not as a conquering king, but as a sacrificial lamb. This imagery, deeply rooted in Old Testament symbolism from the Passover to the temple sacrifices, reveals God's consistent plan of redemption throughout history. This message calls us to examine our hearts: Are we open to recognizing God's work in our lives, even when it doesn't match our expectations?
