The Passover Lamb (Christ) sacrificed Him on the cross for our sins


The Passover Lamb (Christ) sacrificed Him on the cross for our sins

Mark 14:12(On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb)
                12 On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, Jesus’ disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”

Ex 12:1-11(Lord talked to Moses on how people should celebrate the Passover)
                1 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, 2 “This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year. 3 Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb[a] for his family, one for each household.

Deut 16:1 – 4(God brings us out of bondage through the Cross)
                1 Observe the month of Aviv and celebrate the Passover of the LORD your God, because in the month of Aviv he brought you out of Egypt by night. 2 Sacrifice as the Passover to the LORD your God an animal from your flock or herd at the place the LORD will choose as a dwelling for his Name.

1 Cor 5:7(we should repent from our old ways as Christ our Passover Lamb has been sacrificed)
                7 Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new unleavened batch—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

1 Pet 1:19(We were redeemed with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect)
                18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. 

John 1:29(John saw Jesus coming toward him and said “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!)
                29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
