Jesus, the Atoning One and Scapegoat
April 6, 2025
Since sin’s entry into human experience in the Garden of Eden, a great separation has existed between God and humanity. Such a gulf could not be crossed by human effort, but only through the gracious gift of the Creator God. The day of atonement reflected that only the offering of an animal’s life could communicate the gravity of human evil. When Jesus offered His life and His death in our place on the Cross, He became what we are—destined for death as a result for evil—but also offered what we need—life over death, forgiveness amidst sin, hope for now and beyond death.
Leviticus 16; Hebrews 10:3-4, 19-20; 1 John 2:2
