Read John 1:29-34

In Genesis 22, Abraham took his son Isaac to Moriah, because God commanded him to offer Isaac as a burnt offering. Isaac asked his father, “Where is the lamb for the burnt offering?” Abraham responded to his son, “God will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.” And as we know, God stopped Abraham and did provide a ram to take Isaac’s place. And God almighty has provided the world a Lamb to take away all our sin. Jesus Christ is the world’s Sacrificial Lamb. So Abraham didn’t have to sacrifice his only son, because God chose to sacrifice His only son to atone for our sins!

So in this time of Lent, we no longer have to live in anxiety; laboring to justify our existence, for our justification is in Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior, the perfect and spotless Lamb of God, Who took away our sin, and the sin of the world.
