November 19, 2023, Genesis 22:1-14, "Where is the Lamb?" (Full)

Genesis 22:1-14, a picture of what was going to happen in the future at Calvary (the first coming of Christ in the New Testament); a typology of the Father (God) and the Son (Lamb)

Genesis 22:13, substitutionary atonement; someone else takes the place of the original sinner and takes on their judgment and penalty (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Psalm 65:3, Psalm 79:9, God providing atonement (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Galatians 3:13, 2 Corinthians 5:21, substitutionary atonement revealed as Jesus Christ after His first coming

Genesis 2:8, the promise that God will provide the provision for atonement, the provision to repay and cover for sin (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Romans 8:3, God sent His Lamb (His own son) to provide the substitutionary atonement

Genesis 22:9, Isaac was Abraham's only begotten son (through Sarah)

John 3:16, God give His ONLY begotten Son therefore

Genesis 22:16-18, the blessing that followed, BUT notice that in order for the blessing to be true, God had to promise NOT to kill Isaac, otherwise where would the multiplied seed come from? If Isaac had to be killed, Isaac would then have to be resurrected in order for the blessing in verse 16-18 to be true.

Genesis 22:10, the original judgment and penalty

Genesis 22:11-12, God canceled the sin (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Colossians 2:14, God removed the judgment and penalties "on the books", took the judgment and wrath out of the way, and nailed all of it to the cross (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Exodus 33:17-23, Matthew 27:46, Mark 15:34, just as Moses could not look at the front of God and God could not look at Moses, but only from behind so that Moses would not die, God also turned His back on Jesus when Jesus was on the cross, as God cannot look at sin

Genesis 22:13, the scapegoat (actually a ram) to replace Isaac as the sacrifice (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Leviticus 16:20, the scapegoat explained, where the high priest would sprinkle the blood (of the dead bullock and dead goat in verse 18) on the mercy seat, then take all the people's sin and iniquities and then lay them upon the live goat (scapegoat), and then drive the scapegoat out of the city gate and into the wilderness (not the same as restitution). The restitution process is a separate matter to deal with the remaining effects and damages left by the sin.

Genesis 20, the seemingly unreasonable task for Abraham, however God never forces people to break the law

Genesis 22:1-9, the seemingly illogical task for Abraham (because Abraham did not have all the details of the plan given to him), however God never forces people to break the law; Abraham still acted in faith

Hebrews 11:1, faith is the substance of things hoped for (not seen)

Genesis 21, faith in the promise to receive an actual son from Sarah

Hebrews 11:17-19, the kind of faith Abraham had

Genesis 22:15-18, faith in God led to obedience in God, and obedience led to blessing from God

Hebrews 9:22, the law: without the shedding of blood (death) there is NO remission (forgiveness and pardon); therefore it was necessary for Jesus Christ, the substitutionary atonement for everyone who will believe in Him, to die on the cross (before being resurrected)
