| Sheila Walsh: The Perfect Lamb of God | 5 Minutes With Jesus | May 29, 2026
- Jesus
- 00:00:01.313 --> 00:00:02.448
- Is on every page of god's word.
- 00:00:02.448 --> 00:00:05.784
- He fulfilled every requirement of the law,
- 00:00:05.784 --> 00:00:08.854
- And he sets us free.
- 00:00:09.288 --> 00:00:11.723
- You don't have to bring a spotless lamb anymore
- 00:00:11.723 --> 00:00:15.294
- Because we come in the name of jesus who is spotless.
- 00:00:15.294 --> 00:00:19.531
- Lamb of god.
- 00:00:19.531 --> 00:00:24.736
- I was talking to a teenage girl at the end of a conference
- 00:00:25.904 --> 00:00:28.640
- I've been speaking at.
- 00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:29.842
- And she told me that she never reads the old testament.
- 00:00:29.842 --> 00:00:32.544
- She said, i'm waiting for jesus to show up in the new home.
- 00:00:32.544 --> 00:00:36.615
- I laughed and i told her that jesus is on
- 00:00:36.615 --> 00:00:39.818
- Every page from genesis to revelation,
- 00:00:39.818 --> 00:00:43.455
- From the first bloodshed in the garden
- 00:00:43.455 --> 00:00:45.491
- Of eden to cover adam and eve with animal skins.
- 00:00:45.491 --> 00:00:48.527
- There is a glorious scarlet thread to
- 00:00:48.527 --> 00:00:51.697
- Every single page of god's word.
- 00:00:51.697 --> 00:00:55.667
- Have you ever wondered why jesus asked john to baptize him?
- 00:00:55.667 --> 00:01:00.339
- Surely of all people who lived.
- 00:01:01.006 --> 00:01:03.142
- Jesus was the only one who never needed to be baptized,
- 00:01:03.142 --> 00:01:07.012
- As he was the perfect, sinless lamb of god.
- 00:01:07.012 --> 00:01:10.883
- But when you read through the whole of god's word, you see
- 00:01:10.883 --> 00:01:14.653
- Jesus fulfilling every prophecy, every promise ever made.
- 00:01:14.653 --> 00:01:19.558
- If you go back to the book of leviticus, in the old testament,
- 00:01:19.558 --> 00:01:22.761
- Laws were laid out
- 00:01:22.761 --> 00:01:24.263
- As to how the people could approach god to sacrifice.
- 00:01:24.263 --> 00:01:28.400
- They had to select a spotless lamb
- 00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:30.969
- And publicly present the priest who would examine it
- 00:01:30.969 --> 00:01:34.773
- And declare it was worthy to be sacrificed.
- 00:01:34.773 --> 00:01:37.242
- Then god would accept the sacrifice.
- 00:01:37.242 --> 00:01:40.312
- So let's head over to the new testament,
- 00:01:40.312 --> 00:01:43.081
- Where jesus asked john to baptize him.
- 00:01:43.081 --> 00:01:45.951
- In matthew chapter three we read this.
- 00:01:45.951 --> 00:02:25.724
- We must carry out all that god requires.
- 00:02:26.592 --> 00:02:30.028
- So what was jesus saying?
- 00:02:30.596 --> 00:02:32.831
- Think about this.
- 00:02:32.831 --> 00:02:33.865
- Things had to be done from the old testament.
- 00:02:33.865 --> 00:02:35.634
- So in public in the jordan river, john announces,
- 00:02:35.634 --> 00:02:39.638
- Behold the lamb of god who takes away the sin of the world.
- 00:02:39.638 --> 00:02:43.342
- You might also remember who john's father was.
- 00:02:44.309 --> 00:02:47.045
- He was zechariah.
- 00:02:47.045 --> 00:02:48.614
- He was a priest from the line of aaron.
- 00:02:48.614 --> 00:02:51.416
- So this humble man from god's line of priests
- 00:02:51.416 --> 00:02:54.953
- Lowered christ into the water.
- 00:02:54.953 --> 00:02:57.089
- And then from heaven came that glorious declaration
- 00:02:57.089 --> 00:03:00.892
- From the only one who could accept the sacrifice.
- 00:03:00.892 --> 00:03:04.663
- Mark records that in this way, in his gospel,
- 00:03:04.663 --> 00:03:23.015
- Jesus is on every page of god's word.
- 00:03:23.849 --> 00:03:28.320
- He fulfilled every requirement of the law,
- 00:03:28.320 --> 00:03:31.390
- And he sets us free.
- 00:03:31.823 --> 00:03:34.259
- You don't have to bring a spotless lamb anymore
- 00:03:34.259 --> 00:03:37.829
- Because we come in the name of jesus who is spotless.
- 00:03:37.829 --> 00:03:42.067
- Lamb of god. let's pray.
- 00:03:42.067 --> 00:03:46.638
- Lord jesus.
- 00:03:46.972 --> 00:03:49.041
- The fact that you were willing,
- 00:03:49.041 --> 00:03:50.876
- As the only man who never sinned,
- 00:03:50.876 --> 00:03:54.413
- To take all of our sin on yourself as a spotless lamb
- 00:03:54.413 --> 00:03:58.650
- Of god is more than
- 00:03:58.650 --> 00:04:00.319
- We can even begin to understand in our human hearts and minds.
- 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:04.222
- But you did it out of love for us.
- 00:04:04.222 --> 00:04:07.359
- Thank you for your obedience to the father.
- 00:04:07.359 --> 00:04:10.429
- What i pray that that would become something
- 00:04:11.330 --> 00:04:14.232
- So real in each one of us.
- 00:04:14.232 --> 00:04:17.302
- That obedience
- 00:04:17.302 --> 00:04:18.637
- Would become more important than always understanding.
- 00:04:18.637 --> 00:04:21.873
- If you've revealed something to us in your word,
- 00:04:21.873 --> 00:04:25.310
- Help us to have a heart that gladly obeys.
- 00:04:25.310 --> 00:04:28.880
- Because that's the path that you chose,
- 00:04:28.880 --> 00:04:31.483
- And that's the path you left for us in jesus name.
- 00:04:31.483 --> 00:04:35.954
- Amen.
- 00:04:36.188 --> 00:04:36.188
