Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus is the Lamb of God who has come to take away the sins of the world. One thing I would like to highlight here is that John the Baptist does not mention the cross here. He says that Jesus is the Lam of God who will take away the sins of the world, but he does not mention specifically Jesus on the cross. It is the entire life and ministry of Jesus that gives us our salvation. In the Apostle's Creed Jesus' life is not mentioned. The Creed goes from the birth to the suffering of Jesus under Pontius Pilate. There is nothing there about the life of Christ. We need to remember not only the death of Jesus on the cross, but his life and ministry in Israel. Jesus is the Lamb of God, not just on the cross, but in his entire life. Jesus is the Lamb of God who has come to take away the sins of the world. God bless you.
