This powerful exploration of Exodus 11-12 takes us to one of the most pivotal moments in biblical history: the final plague and the institution of Passover. We encounter God's people after enduring brutal slavery in Egypt, crying out for deliverance while Pharaoh's heart remains hardened through nine devastating plagues. The tenth plague stands apart as uniquely terrifying: every firstborn son would die unless protected by the blood of a spotless lamb. What makes this passage so profound is the theological depth beneath the narrative. This isn't arbitrary divine cruelty, but rather God bringing all humanity to account for sin. The firstborn son represented the entire household, and in striking the firstborn, God was calling every family to face the reality that all have sinned and the wages of sin is death. Yet in the midst of judgment, we find breathtaking grace. God provided a way of escape through the Passover lamb, which had to be perfect, killed, and consumed. The father would slit the lamb's throat, watching an innocent creature die in place of his guilty family, then paint its blood on the doorposts as a declaration of faith. This becomes the ultimate foreshadow of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. When we understand that Jesus died on Passover at twilight, when the lambs were being slaughtered, and that He transformed the Passover meal to point to His own body and blood, we see God's redemptive plan woven throughout history. The message confronts us with an uncomfortable truth: one day, the only thing that will matter is whether the blood of the Lamb covers our lives.
Many people have their own ideas about who Jesus is, but we want to derive our picture of him from what the Bible says. Who is Jesus according to the man God appointed to introduce him to the world? Sermon Outline:I. The Lamb of God Who Takes Away SinII. The Savior of Humanity We Cannot ManufactureIII. The Son of God Who Demands a ResponseSermon Discussion Questions:1. What are some versions of Jesus you encounter in your own circles, whether in culture, on social media, or even in church, that fall short of the Jesus John introduces here? How do you help someone see the difference without coming across as harsh or dismissive?2. For some of us who have been Christians a long time, we have forgotten how big a deal it is that Jesus takes our sin and guilt away. How can we stay (or become) freshly amazed by his grace? 3. True knowledge of Jesus is a gift God gives by his Spirit, not something we achieve through accumulated religious experience. How should this shape the way we pray for people who don't yet believe? How does it relieve some of the pressure we put on ourselves when our conversations about Jesus don't seem to work?4. Who is one person in your life right now who needs to hear that Jesus is the Lamb who takes away sin? What is one specific, concrete way you could point them to Jesus this week?

Do you ever feel like God is nowhere to be found? Do you ever feel forsaken, abandoned, and forgotten? Maybe that is t he evidence that you have not been left alone. List to this common deception the enemy put on almost all believers.Behold the Lamb: Ministry, Manhood, and the Kingdom WithinIn this powerful, full-length session, we strip away the "fig leaves" of religion to uncover the raw reality of the Kingdom of God. From the classroom to the locker room, the message is clear: God isn't done with you yet. We address the heartbreaking crisis of fatherlessness in today's generation and the vital need for men to stand on the absolute truth of the Word of God rather than their own feelings, giftings, or paychecks.We explore the transition from the Old Covenant "types and shadows" to the once-and-for-all sacrifice of Jesus, the Lamb of God. You don't have to keep "sacrificing another goat" every time you stumble; you have to trust the finished work of Christ. Using the "house cleaning" analogy, we discuss how the Holy Spirit systematically cleanses every room of our lives—from the living room to the attic—transforming us from "glory to glory."Whether you are navigating a career change, leading a family, or just trying to find your footing, this message is a call to surrender your own "mess" for His beauty. It's time to move past the doctrine of men and step into the rule and government of God within you.Key Highlights:True Manhood: Why spiritual leadership matters more than winning a physical fight.The "Yoda" Effect: How the anointing of the Spirit carries you when you are physically drained.The Kingdom Within: Understanding that the rule of God starts in your heart today, not just on streets of gold.The "House Cleaning" Analogy: A humorous but deep look at how God cleanses our "temples" room by room.Kingdom Career Advice: Why you should never take a job for money, but only for where Jesus leads.From Glory to Glory: Why spiritual growth is a constant, lifelong "graduation" process.Key Scriptures:John 1:29 – "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!"Luke 17:21 – "The kingdom of God is within you."Romans 12:2 – "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind."2 Corinthians 3:18 – "Being transformed into the same image from glory to glory."Philippians 2:5 – "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus."#KingdomOfGod #BiblicalManhood #FaithOverFear #HolySpirit #SpiritualGrowth #BeholdTheLamb #ChristianLiving #ManOfGodChapters00:00 - Intro: Ministry and the Anointing of the Spirit25:40 - The Mercy of God: Chosen Before the Foundation31:28 - God Isn't Done With You: Stop Trusting Your Feelings44:16 - The Cycle of Sin: Why the Permanent Sacrifice Matters58:38 - From Glory to Glory: The Lifelong Graduation Process1:02:11 - The House Cleaning Analogy: Cleansing the Rooms of the Soul1:06:36 - Kingdom Career Advice: Choosing Jesus Over the Paycheck
DATE: 04/26/25 SPEAKER: Pastor Nathan Phillips TEXT: John 1:29-34 https://www.evergreentn.com/
Today, we're stepping into a powerful moment in Scripture…A moment where heaven makes an announcement through a man named John:“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.” (John 1:29)
In John 1, 19-51, we see a repeated invitation: “Come and see.” This passage isn't just recounting events—it's inviting us to slow down, pay attention, and truly behold Jesus. At its core, discipleship is not about doing more, but about fixing our eyes on Him in a way that transforms us from the inside out. Through these first encounters, we're invited to examine what we're really seeking and how we respond—whether with curiosity, shame, distraction, or longing. The gap we often feel with God isn't the end of it all; it's an invitation to deeper connection, trust, and intimacy. SPEAKER: Ruth Nazanin BetEivaz Bible Passage(s): John 1:19-51 NIV

Behold the Lamb - Rev 5:6-14 - Father Trevor McMaken by
Discover the profound mystery of why the "Lamb of God" had to be slain to settle a debt you could never pay. This message traces the crimson thread of sacrifice from the gates of Eden to the hill of Calvary, revealing how one perfect life became the ultimate substitute for all humanity. Stop trying to earn a salvation that has already been finished and learn what it truly means to behold the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world.
Message from Pastor Tom Hauser on April 5, 2026
The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! - John 1:29 NKJV
The eighth station: John the Baptist points to Jesus — the Lamb of God. “Behold the Lamb of God.” These are the words we hear at every Mass… but do we really understand them? In that moment at the River Jordan, John the Baptist reveals everything: Jesus is the perfect sacrifice. The fulfillment of every Old Testament promise. The Lamb who takes away the sins of the world. And every time we come forward for Communion… those same words are spoken to us. This is not just a symbol. This is not just bread. This is Jesus — the Lamb of God. So how do we respond? With faith. With courage. With a real, committed prayer life.
This Palm Sunday message invites us to behold Jesus clearly as the sacrificial Lamb rather than the political king the crowd expected. Through John 12 and 19 the sermon contrasts the triumphal entry with the crucifixion showing how the people cried "Hosanna save us now" while missing the Lamb who came to die. Jesus declares "It is finished" completing spiritual liberation fulfillment of the law access to God inner peace and resurrection life. The core takeaway is that Christ is not the king of our comfort or preferences but the King we truly need who calls us to take up our cross and follow Him.
John 19:14-19 /w Pastor Connor HarrisonWe can't behold the Lamb without first adopting his attitude of humility. We look at the posture of Jesus and the humility he displayed. Support the showhttps://victorylifechurch.com/teachings/
In Part 4 of "Covered," we hear John the Baptist declare, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.” As Pastor Josh walks us through who John was and why his words matter, we're reminded that Jesus is the fulfillment of everything Scripture has been pointing toward. And just like John, we get to point people to Him—living out our faith and inviting others to experience the hope we've found in Jesus, especially in this Easter season. // Verses and message notes: www.theridge.church/notes // Join us online or in person Sundays at 9a + 11a: www.theridge.church/live
Because of our sin, we tend to stay blind to what God is doing. We wonder what God is doing or if he is really in control. We misunderstand that God is using the greatest suffering to bring about the greatest victory. Jesus willingly suffers, dies, and is buried to fulfill and porve everything that was ever written about him. The gospel shows how Jesus was using the greatest evil in the sinful hearts of man to bring about the good possible. The full redemption and salvation to every one who would put their faith and Trust in Jesus as their King.
Behold, the Lamb of God! Rev. Dr. Colleen Hurley-Bates (3.29.26) by Sermons
Join us as we trace the life and purpose of the Lamb of God through Scripture — from the Passover lamb in Exodus 12 to John the Baptist's declaration (John 1:29), the praise of Psalm 118:26, Jesus' arrival in Luke 19:28, and the events of Matthew 26:1–35. In this message we will: Unpack the Passover's sacrificial symbolism and how it foreshadows Christ's atoning work. Explore John 1:29 and the meaning of “Behold the Lamb of God” for believers today. Reflect on Psalm 118's cry of praise and the people's welcome of Jesus, then consider the cost revealed in the upper room and Gethsemane (Matthew 26). Draw practical applications for worship, repentance, courage, and living in the light of Christ's substitutionary love. Scripture readings: Exodus 12; John 1:29; Psalm 118:26; Luke 19:28; Matthew 26:1–35.

John 17-19 As we study the events leading to the crucifixion of Jesus, we first look at his teaching on unity in His church. Unity is diversity with harmony. Unity must be centered around Christ and His Word. It's based on a mutual relationship with Christ. We then look at the person of Pilate. He knew right from wrong but was more worried about what people would think about him. The fear of man and the need to be a people pleaser will cause you to do things that are not right just because it's popular.

In this sermon, Pastor Austin explores John 9, where Jesus heals a man born blind, revealing Him as the light of the world. The story shows how Jesus sees people beyond their conditions or blame, heals physically and relationally, yet brings division—some see truth and believe, while others remain spiritually blind due to pride and tradition. The core takeaway is that Jesus pursues us through rejection and wounds, completing our healing and inviting us to examine our own areas of spiritual blindness. Ultimately, true sight comes from encountering Jesus as Lord, even when it costs us acceptance from others.
In the second installment of the “Behold the Lamb” series, Pastor Mike Haman teaches through the meaning of John 1:29 as he encourages us the power in beholding the Lamb.
John 9:39 /w Pastor Micah MooreJesus reveals that spiritual blindness is not always obvious, it can take the form of blame, familiarity, fear, or pride. While some are blind because they lack understanding, others become blind because they believe they already see. Jesus invites those who acknowledge their blindness to gain true sight.Support the showhttps://victorylifechurch.com/teachings/
We have all sinned and rebelled against God, and like Barabbas, we deserve the death penalty, eternal, spiritual death. The innocent One, Jesus Christ, took the criminal's place so that the criminals could be set free. The King of the universe was mocked as a fake king, and he allowed it to happen in order to save us. If we have a Savior and King like this, what can we do but serve him, love him, and worship him?
John 8:2-11 /w Pastor Jacob SheriffJesus confronts both public sin and hidden self-righteousness when religious leaders bring a woman caught in adultery to shame her and trap Him. He refuses both self-righteous shaming and casual tolerance of sin, offering mercy that leads to transformation.Support the showhttps://victorylifechurch.com/teachings/
In John 8:2-11, Jesus confronts both public sin and hidden self-righteousness when religious leaders bring a woman caught in adultery to shame her and trap Him. By saying the one without sin should cast the first stone, He exposes their hypocrisy and causes the accusers to leave as their own consciences convict them. Standing before the only true Judge, the woman receives mercy rather than condemnation, yet Jesus also calls her to leave her life of sin. The story reveals the heart of Christ: He refuses both self-righteous shaming and casual tolerance of sin, offering mercy that leads to transformation.
Pastor JT Terry begins a new teaching series titled “Behold The Lamb” as he encourages us to embrace the God's divine patterns in our lives as we follow the example Jesus modeled for us.
We all screw up, but how we respond when we do is what matters most. Our sin nature makes us want to hide from God when we sin when He is, in fact, the One person we need most! Christ died to save sinners like you and me. When we understand his sacrifice and what it does for us, we aren't afraid of the Father. We run to him in our mistakes and receive his forgiveness.
In this message Pastor Austin teaches from John 5, a story that centers on Jesus healing a man paralyzed for 38 years at the Pool of Bethesda. The story reveals that Jesus sees the overlooked, exposes our deeper wounds, and offers far more than temporary physical healing—He offers eternal life through knowing Him as Savior. Ultimately, the sermon emphasizes that while God heals bodies (which is temporary), the greater miracle is spiritual salvation and knowing God, as we are sustained by His boundless grace even in unhealed suffering.
John 5:2-17 /w Pastor Jacob SheriffAt the pool of Bethesda, Jesus steps into a place filled with brokenness, superstition, and long-held hopelessness. This passage invites us to examine our own hearts. Often the greatest barrier between us and the transforming work of Jesus is not our weakness but our reluctance to surrender our excuses, identities, and desires.Support the showhttps://victorylifechurch.com/teachings/
Dramatic irony is when the audience clearly understands something the characters in the book, play or movie do not. We say or think things like, “Don't open that door!” "Don't get on that plane!” “He's not who he says he is!" We have a fair amount of dramatic irony at play in Luke 22:47-65. No matter how many times I read about Jesus' betrayal and denial, or see it depicted in a movie or a TV show, it never gets any easier. There's some part of me that wants to yell at the characters, “Don't do it!” Or warn Jesus, “It's a trap!”But there's more going on here other than just a series of moral failures. Even in the Garden of Gethsemane, there's incredible Good News in view! Can you see it? If not, relax your focus and we'll look at it together this Sunday.
We think we can control what Jesus can or cannot do in our lives. We think we can define how and when he works in our lives. The gospel teaches us that God is sovereign over all things, even when it seems like we are in control and he is not. He is always in control. His work of grace, redemption, and salvation will be accomplished whether we want to or not.
