In Our Place - Ransom
Matt 20:26-28
"...the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many"
— Hosea 1-3 —
Like Gomer in the book of Hosea, we have been pursued with underserved love and have been ransomed by God.
Through the cross our debt is paid in full!
There is more grace in Christ than sin in us - Receive God's love and respond in love
In Our Place - Sacrifice
John 1:28-29
“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!"
Christ is the perfect sacrifice to atone for the sin for all those who call upon His glorious name.
On this Good Friday message, Ps Matt illustrates through the Passover story in Exodus (Exodus 12) the good news that Christ, through His death, was a worthy and willing sacrifice - in our place.
