Tonite as I was preparing for this Sunday, a passage on Abraham sacrificed his son Isaac. God provided a ram as substitute. So that Isaac need not to die.
\nHowever, many years later, when Jesus walked to the cross. God didn’t provide a ram as substitute. Jesus was the substitute Lamb. He’s the Lamb of God which takes away the sins of the world. He’s the substitute for the whole world.
\nFor God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whosoever believes shall not perish but have eternal life.<\/p>\n
