Jesus is the Sacrificial Lamb

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God. He is the perfect, pure and innocent lamb who was sent as a sacrifice to die in our place. He was betrayed, scourged, beaten, spit on, insulted and finally crucified under Pontius Pilate. He died a criminal’s death on a cross, and yet three days later he rose from the dead to vindicate the saving work of his life and death and to take his place as the majestic, everlasting Lord of Lords on the throne of God. Christ, though completely righteous, willingly submitted himself to the Father by sacrificially laying down his life, absorbing the punishment and wrath of God that was against humanity.
