God in love provided for Himself and for us a Lamb, a Lamb to be offered as a burnt offering and as a sin offering to make atonement for us, righteously removing sin and sins from His sight and reconciling us to Himself. What did the Lamb do? “How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” (Heb. 9:1414How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:14)). You and I are now sheep and lambs. Our conscience has been purged from dead works so that we are now called to “serve the living God.” He, the Lamb, served by offering Himself. And we? We who now are His sheep are exhorted to act like Him who is now our Shepherd. “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” (Rom. 12:11I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. (Romans 12:1)).
