Episode notes
Jesus As The Ultimate Sacrifice
- John the Baptist introduces Jesus with the title "Behold, the Lamb of God," framing Jesus as the ultimate sacrificial solution for sin.
- This connects Jesus to Passover imagery and signals the atonement as central to his mission.
Passover's Blood As A Sign Of Rescue
- The Passover lamb in Exodus was a blood-sign that spared households from judgment and initiated annual remembrance.
- Louie Giglio links that event to the theological need for a life-bearing sacrifice to atone for spiritual death.
Sin Kills; A Living Substitute Is Needed
- Sin brings death, not mere moral defect, so salvation requires payment by a living substitute.
- Jesus is both fully God and fully man, uniquely able to be the alive substitute whose blood bridges humanity to God.
