29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. - John 1:29.



Have you ever given much thought to the horribleness of sin. Has there been a time when you allowed your mind to sit and think about what sin does? Sin is alot of things but when you allow your mind to contemplate, and visualize the horribleness of sin - you come to a place where you can see what happened on the cross. The cross is the place where God allows Humanity to see the horribleness of sin. How does that work? it's very simple; look at the brutality and the wickedness that would cause Jesus Christ of Nazareth - the most brutal death to be experienced by mankind. What was it that came on Jesus for the "The Sin of the world."



What caused the very specially prepared body to sweat great drops of blood as it were. What was working on the cross, what was God allowing Humanity to visually, mentally, and physically see what sin is? It gave us a picture of the mind and heart of God toward "The Sin" and it gave to us that mental picture of how God sees sin, and cannot look upon sin. It was all put on his only begotten Son; at that moment on the cross when the skies darkened, the heavens roared, and God could not look upon his very own Begotten Son, the only begotten of the Father.



Now again viewing how God see's sin. He cannot. He cannot look at sin without having to do something about it, and He did before the foundation of the world: that something: He prepared himself The Body. That sacrificial body that would carry The Sin away - out of the world - never to be remembered. You must point out at this point; The Only Sin that he will ever deal with - and dealt with, on the cross in Christ on Calvary. It will not make sense to those that try to understand what God was doing. But the Lamb of God that was prepared before the foundation of the world; took away "The Sin" of the world. You must stay with what is written! what is written. John the Baptist spun around as Jesus walked up on a particular day, and John the Baptist said; Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away "The Sin" of the world.



It does not matter what man says about sin: 'Behold the Lamb of God.' It does not matter what twists and turns a person can put on scripture: 'Behold the Lamb.' It does not matter what the preacher says about The Sin: 'Behold the Lamb.' It does not matter to God the Father how you feel about The Sin: 'Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away The Sin of the world.'



The one, and The Only Sin: that plagued Humanity: The Sin. It could not be looked upon and was dealt with once and for all on Calvary in Christ - by the Father's prepared lamb before the foundation of The World:



It does not matter how you view The Sin, or the sins you have ever committed or continue to commit; Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away The Sin of the world:

“ When John the Baptist said, ‘Behold, the lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world’ ( John 1:29 ), he was most likely seeing Christ as the perfect Passover lamb, an image Paul also uses when he speaks of ‘Christ, our Passover lamb ( 1 Cor. 5:7 )

"John saw Jesus coming to him, and pointed him out as the Lamb of God. The paschal lamb, in the shedding and sprinkling of its blood, the roasting and eating of its flesh, and all the other circumstances of the ordinance, represented the salvation of sinners by faith in Christ. And the lambs sacrificed every morning and evening, can only refer to Christ slain as a sacrifice to redeem us to God by his blood."
