In John 3:14–15, Jesus connects His crucifixion to one of the most unusual events in the Old Testament—Moses lifting up the bronze serpent in the wilderness. In this episode of Shadows to Substance, George Sayour explores how Numbers 21 points directly to Christ, revealing a powerful picture of sin, judgment, faith, and salvation. Discover how the curse of Eden, the wilderness rebellion, and the cross all come together in one remarkable biblical pattern—and why Jesus said that just as Moses lifted up the serpent, so the Son of Man must be lifted up. Those who looked in faith lived then. Those who look to Christ in faith live now.
