 Jesus, The Lamb of God Jn. 1:29, 36  When Jesus was baptized, John identified Him as the Lamb of God (Jn. 1:29, 36).  The significance of Jesus as the Lamb of God is far reaching, the phrase "Lamb of God" refers to Jesus as the sacrifice for sin, which God provided. 2 Cor. 5:18; 1 Jn. 4:1, 15  Through Jesus, God reconciled us to Himself by sending Jesus into the world as the propitiation for our sins, thus becoming the Savior of the world (2 Cor. 5:18; 1 Jn. 4:1, 15). 5/6/20153

 Jesus, The Lamb of God Acts 8:32; Isa. 53:7  As our Passover, Jesus was led as a sheep to the slaughter (Acts 8:32; Isa. 53:7). Isa. 53:4  Jesus bore our griefs, and carried our sorrows (Isa. 53:4). Isa. 53:5  Jesus was pierced through for our transgressions (Isa. 53:5). Isa. 53:5  Jesus was crushed for our iniquities (Isa. 53:5). Isa. 53:5  The chastening for our well- being fell upon Jesus (Isa. 53:5). 5/6/20154

 Washed In Jesus' Blood Rev. 7:14  Because of our sins, we must be washed in Jesus' blood to be saved (Rev. 7:14). Rev. 7:13-15  "... 'These who are clothed in the white robes.... These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason, they are before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them'" (Rev. 7:13-15). 5/6/20156

 BUT we are Washed In Jesus' Blood When Baptized. 1 Jn. 1:7  Jesus' blood cleanses us from sin. Therefore, we're washed in Jesus' blood when we're cleansed from sin (1 Jn. 1:7).  People outside of Christ are washed in His blood when they are baptized. Acts 22:16  "'Now why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name'" (Acts 22:16). 5/6/20158

 As Christians, Jesus’ blood cleanses us of sin when we repent, confess, and pray for forgiveness. 1 Jn. 1:7-9  "... if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.... If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 Jn. 1:7-9). Acts 8:22  "'Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray the Lord that, if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you'" (Acts 8:22). 5/6/20159

 What is a Savior?  A savior is a deliver and preserver.  God is our Savior Luke 1:47  The first New Testament appearance of the word "Savior" is in Luke 1:47, when Mary tells Elizabeth, "And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.“ Colossians 1:13-14  God is our Savior because He delivered us from sin and eternal damnation – Colossians 1: Ephesians 2:4-7  And He is our deliver because He protects and preserves us in Christ – Ephesians 2:4-7. 5/6/201510

5/6/ He rescued us For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins" (Col. 1:13-14).

5/6/ made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus "But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus" (Eph. 2:4-7).

1 Jn. 4:14  John tells us that "the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world" (1 Jn. 4:14).  Since Jesus, Savior of the World – it means Jesus has been our Savior from birth, as announced by angels the day He was born.

Many more believed because of His word; and they were saying to the woman, "It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One is indeed the Savior of the world" (Jn. 4:40-42). 5/6/201516

 BUT Jesus is the Savior of People in His Kingdom – as such Jesus is our Savior.  God transfers us into the kingdom of Christ when we obey the gospel, resulting in forgiveness. Col. 1:12-14  "Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light. For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins" (Col. 1:12-14). 5/6/201518

 Jesus, Savior of People in His Kingdom Col. 1:14  We are forgiven at the time God transfers into the kingdom of Christ (Col. 1:14). Col. 2:  We are forgiven at the time we're baptized (Col. 2:12- 13).  Therefore, God transfers us into the kingdom of Christ when we are buried with Him in baptism. 5/6/201519

 Jesus, Savior of People in His Kingdom  Other scriptures indicate this also: Jn. 3:5  Jesus says we must be born of water and Spirit to enter the kingdom (Jn. 3:5).  To be born of water is to be baptized. Rom. 6:3; Gal. 3:27  Paul states that we are baptized into Christ; hence, we're baptized into Christ's kingdom when we're baptized (Rom. 6:3; Gal. 3:27). 5/6/201520

 Jesus, Savior of People in His Church Heb. 12:22, 28; Lk. 22:29-20  The kingdom is the church, given to Jesus by God (Heb. 12:22, 28; Lk. 22:29-20).

 Jesus, Savior of People in His Church  As with Christ's kingdom, we see regarding the church: Acts 2:47  We are added to the church when we are baptized (Acts 2:47). 1 Cor. 12:13; Eph. 1:22-23  We are baptized into the body, which is the church (1 Cor. 12:13; Eph. 1:22-23). Eph. 5:23  Jesus is the Savior of the church (Eph. 5:23).  NOTE: ONLY ONE BODY – SINCE HE IS THE BUILDER OF JUST ONE! 5/6/201522
