In an age that prizes comfort and sanitizes truth, the stark, crimson thread of sacrifice woven through the Word of God has become a matter of intellectual embarrassment or, worse, indifference. Modern man, in his quest for a therapeutic faith, has fashioned a saviour in his own image-a gentle teacher, a moral guide, a figure of placid benevolence. He has conveniently misplaced the altar, forgotten the necessity of blood, and ignored the disquieting, central proclamation of redemptive history: Behold the Lamb of God.

But who is this Lamb? Why does this single, strange, and persistent image appear from the dawn of human history in Genesis, haunt the lonely summit of Moriah, command the allegiance of a nation on a dark night in Egypt, and finally ascend the very throne of heaven?

This book is an answer to that question. It is a journey into the heart of the Bible's grandest, most glorious, and most progressive revelation. With the King James Bible as the sole map and guide, you will trace the unfolding doctrine of the Lamb from the first sacrifice at Eden's gate to the final, triumphant worship of the Lamb in glory.

You will stand with Abel at his altar, climb the mountain of sacrifice with Abraham, apply the blood on the doorposts of the Passover, and gaze with Isaiah upon the prophetic portrait of the suffering servant who was ""brought as a lamb to the slaughter."" You will hear John the Baptist's own declaration on the banks of the Jordan, ""Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world,"" and witness with the apostles how this one perfect offering accomplishes what ages of ritual could only foreshadow.

This is more than a theological study; it is an invitation to an encounter. It is a call to look past the veneer of comfortable religion and to behold the staggering cost of your redemption. For in the slain Lamb, the paradox of all existence is resolved: the victim becomes the victor, the sacrifice becomes the king, and the judgment you deserve is borne by the one who loves you. Herein is not a doctrine to be merely learned, but a person to be known, trusted, and adored. Open these pages and behold, for yourself, the Lamb of God.

William Thomas Irvin is, first and foremost, a man redeemed by the grace of God. After a tumultuous path that led him from his birthplace in Memphis, Tennessee, through service in the U.S. Air Force to life as a defense contractor in the deserts of Saudi Arabia, the Lord graciously confronted him with his sin in 2010. Finding the peace with God he had long sought (Romans 5:1), his life was forever changed.This newfound peace ignited a desire to serve, a path that led him from the tutelage of a missionary family to the front lines of a chapel in Afghanistan, where he had the privilege of teaching the Scriptures to soldiers. That experience opened the door to an ongoing ministry in Uganda, focused on Bible teaching and Bible translation.Today, he is a husband, a father, and the pastor of George County Baptist Church in Lucedale, Mississippi. He considers himself a nobody who has been graciously saved by a great Saviour, and his singular desire in writing this book is to honor and glorify the Lord Jesus Christ-the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.
