LAMB OF GOD

I have always loved lamb! Infact, we always had it at Easter,with rice and gravy;mint jelly and usually some conk peas, which are like little lady peas.
When I think about it though,lamb is the perfect picture of the Easter story.Some 1300 years before Christ,the Israelites were told to take a lamb and slaughter it.They were to wipe the blood on their doorposts,to signify that they belonged to God, and the Angel of Death would pass them by, when God claimed the lives of the first born of the Egyptians. The leg of lamb was not to be broken in the slaughter through all of this!
How prophetic!
Now,some 1300 years later,our Lord is our Sacrificial Lamb upon the cross at Easter.The One, who,being pierced in His side......died,but His bones were never broken!..Even in death, the prophecy holds true!
Does God not cover every base,or what? No wonder I love lamb!
I really love this Lamb!
