Mike Bell
MAIN TEXT
John 1:6-34
THE WORLD IS LOST
The state of humanity was utter darkness without the light of Christ. John came to bear witness about this light! This light that shines in the darkness.
THE KING OF LIGHT
The light of Christ is bright enough to overcome the darkness of humanity.
The blood of Christ is good enough to atone for the sins of humanity.
THE LAMB OF GOD
Before Jesus became the conquering Lion of Judah through His resurrection, he became the sacrificial Lamb of God through His crucifixion.
3 things that this title embodies:
1. The lamb provides a sacrifice (Jesus’ blood)
2. The lamb provides a substitute (God brought the lamb)
3. The lamb provides satisfaction (justice for our sin)
