## Resource

This homily explores the biblical continuity of the 'Lamb of God' imagery, from the Passover in Exodus to the sacrifice of Jesus. It challenges listeners to move beyond rote recitation of liturgy to truly behold the sacrificial nature of Christ.

## Highlights
- Main idea: The title 'Lamb of God' connects the sacrificial patterns of Genesis and Exodus to the mission of Jesus
- Practical takeaway: Believers are called to 'behold'—to actively pay attention to Christ's presence in their daily lives
- Failure mode: Using liturgical phrases like 'Lamb of God' as empty, repetitive words without understanding their depth
- Theological insight: The sacrifice of the Lamb provides a sufficient remedy for guilt, removing the need to live in the past
- Call to action: Following Christ means emulating His sacrificial love through service and justice in the modern world
