Genesis

.”Slide8

Isaiah

Surely

he has borne our

Slide9

Isaiah

He

was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth.

Peter

1:18-20

…

you

were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,

but

with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.

He

was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of

youSlide11

Simeon

Such a lamb was Christ: he was the Lamb, whom all the others typified. He was truly without spot or blemish; and was offered on the altar of his cross, not merely for the good, but in the stead, of sinners. He was really a propitiatory sacrifice, inasmuch as he bore in his own body the curse due to sin, and expiated all its guilt.

As there was no variation of the daily sacrifices, but only a repetition of the same, so his one offering of himself is the sole cause of our acceptance with God: nor need that to be repeated, because the virtue of it extends from the beginning to the end of time

Slide12

John

10:17-18

For

this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.

18

No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from my Father

Male

or female, old or young, rich or poor: all are guilty before God, and from them all God gathers his people. Aged men, aged women, young women, younger men, and even slaves

should

live consecrated lives, for the grace of God has appeared bringing salvation to men of all these various groups or classes.

Peter

2:24

He

himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

Slide15

Hebrews

9:28

…

so

Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him. Slide16

Meyer

The

Lamb as it had been slain must be beheld both here and hereafter, in this world and in all worlds. Not His character, however fair; not His words, however much light they cast on mysteries of life and death; not His miracles, however strong their testimony to His Divine mission: but His appointment to bear the sin of the world, this is the primary aspect in which we are to behold Him

but

these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the

Son of God

, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Slide24

Henry

God could have taken away sin, by taking away the sinner, as he took away the sin of the old world; but here is a way of doing away sin, yet sparing the sinner, by making his Son sin, that is, a sin-offering, for us.

Slide25

Maclaren

My task, and that of all preachers, if we understand it aright, is but to repeat the same message, and to concentrate attention on the same fact – ‘The Lamb of God which

taketh

away the sin of the world.’ It is the one thing needful for you, dear friend, to believe. It is the truth that we all need most of all. There is no reason for our

being

gathered together now, except that I may beseech you to behold for yourselves the Lamb of God which takes away the world’s sin
