Got Junk...

He'll take it!

As the lamb Jesus sure takes on a lot.  Sometimes I think, "He's the lamb, He doesn't need to be bothered by my junk (as if I'm hiding it)." He already knows it... ANDY! He as the lamb paid for, atoned, and paid in FULL my (our) sin.  In His weakness there is strength.  That lamb must have a STRONG back for my sin alone...

• He is the conquering lamb, who breaks the back of evil.

• He is the suffering lamb, who exchanges places with sinful humanity. 

• He is the Passover lamb, who delivers us from slavery and death.

• He is the scapegoat, who bears the world's infection into the wilderness, inaugurating the eradication of sin making way for the Kingdom.

• He is the lamb provided to Abraham, whose blood seals the new and everlasting covenant between God and humanity.

• He is the one great final sacrifice, who fulfills all that is foreshadowed in all the sacrifices.  

 ... He can cry out, "It is finished!" (John 19:30) It is something final, something ultimate and cosmic. Look! Finished!  (DJ. 21)

I know it's already been stated but...
1. It is safe to be in the presence of Jesus.
2. It is possible to change. ("perfection"-redefined) (DJ. 22)

Got Junk... He'll take it!

"Look! Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29)
