Why a Sacrifice?

As we explore the profound mystery of Easter, we're invited to look beyond the familiar events and ask a deeper question: Why did Jesus have to die? This journey takes us through powerful biblical narratives, from Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac to the Passover lamb in Exodus. These stories paint a vivid picture of God's plan for redemption, culminating in Christ as the ultimate sacrificial Lamb. We're reminded that we're created in God's image, but sin has marred that image. The wages of sin is death, but God, in His infinite mercy, provided a way out. Through Jesus' sacrifice, we see not just the gravity of our sin, but the immeasurable depth of God's love. This message challenges us to reflect on the cost of our redemption and how it should transform our lives and deepen our faith.
