...when they killed the Passover lamb...
Mark 14:12b
Jesus is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. Him who knew no sin became sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Jesus.
He took our sins and He nailed them to the cross and He rose from the dead and gives us the hope of eternal life. Since we are all sinners in need of a Savior, the fact that Jesus is the Passover Lamb is an occasion to rejoice and give glory to God.
For we were once lost and without hope, but now we have the hope of eternal life. Let us look to Jesus since He is the author and finisher of our faith. Knowing that we have truly received forgiveness and set free.
