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. Here is the audio podcast (the Cold-Case Christianity Weekly Podcast is located on iTunes or our RSS Feed):
