The Lamb of God

WEBKJVBSBESVNKJVNASBNLT

Follow the lamb from the Passover in Egypt to the throne of heaven.

A spotless lamb dies so that Israel might live; a prophet sees a servant led silently to the slaughter; John points and cries, "Behold, the Lamb of God"; Paul says "Christ our Passover has been sacrificed"; and the Bible ends with the whole creation worshiping the Lamb who was slain and now reigns.
  1. 1

    The Passover lamb

    Exodus 12:13

    But the blood on your doorposts will serve as a sign, marking the houses where you are staying. When I see the blood, I will pass over you. This plague of death will not touch you when I strike the land of Egypt.

    A lamb dies and its blood spares Israel from death.
  2. 2

    Led like a lamb to the slaughter

    Isaiah 53:7

    He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth.

    Isaiah's suffering servant, silent before his shearers.
  3. 3

    Behold, the Lamb of God

    John 1:29

    The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

    John the Baptist names Jesus the Lamb who takes away the world's sin.
  4. 4

    Christ our Passover

    1 Corinthians 5:7

    Get rid of the old “yeast” by removing this wicked person from among you. Then you will be like a fresh batch of dough made without yeast, which is what you really are. Christ, our Passover Lamb, has been sacrificed for us.

    "Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed."
  5. 5

    A lamb without blemish

    1 Peter 1:19

    It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.

    Ransomed by the precious blood of Christ.
  6. 6

    Worthy is the Lamb

    Revelation 5:6

    Then I saw a Lamb that looked as if it had been slaughtered, but it was now standing between the throne and the four living beings and among the twenty-four elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent the sevenfold Spirit of God that is sent out into every part of the earth.

    The slain-yet-standing Lamb at the center of heaven's worship.
