The Big Reveal Epiphany Season 2023

Revealed by John as the Lamb of God (Apache) 1.22.2023

Pastor Gary Lupe
For centuries the priests of Israel offered sacrifices to God for sin. Over and over blood flowed, testifying that the penalty of sin was death. But over and over a substitute stood in the place of the sinner. Countless animals died under the priestly knife as generations of the faithful brought lamb after lamb to the temple. This week we see the Lamb that God himself was bringing to the temple. This was the Lamb that God himself would sacrifice. In the great act that would remove our condemnation, the Messiah took our sins, stood in our place, and died as the substitute for sinful mankind. This was the fulfillment of the entire sacrificial system.

SHARE SERMON

The Big Reveal Epiphany Season 2023

For most of Jesus' adult life, he lived quietly in Galilee. The Gospels share very little information about Jesus’ youth or his early years of adulthood. But at the exact time God the Father had appointed, Jesus revealed himself. The word epiphany means “appearance.” In the Season of Epiphany, we watch Jesus begin his public ministry. Jesus makes his first appearances beginning with the visit of the magi and ending with his transfiguration. In those appearances, we see exactly who this Jesus is and what he came to do.
