This Is NOT How Lambs Work: The Shocking Old Testament Clue Everyone Misses About Jesus

About this episode

In this episode, J. Warner Wallace takes you into the forensic details of the Bible's sacrificial system to examine a stunning claim: when John the Baptist called Jesus "the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world," he was doing something that flatly breaks the Old Testament lamb pattern.

Using the same cold-case, investigative approach he applied for years as a detective, J. Warner shows that the mismatch between the Old Testament lamb pattern and Jesus' sacrifice is not a problem to explain away—it's a powerful evidential clue that Jesus is the God-man, whose once-for-all sacrifice has infinite worth.

If you've ever wondered how the sacrificial system really worked, whether penal substitution is biblically grounded, or why Jesus must be God for the atonement to make sense, this episode will help you see the Lamb of God with fresh eyes.
