Look! The call of action to turn, to stop, to notice. John the Baptizer is the one who is calling those around to take notice, to acknowledge the significance of Jesus.
When we see Jesus, we see the fullest representation of the living God. Jesus reveals the heart of God. So in John 1:29, John the Baptizer proclaims what God looks like. God is not a vengeful dictator or self-consumed leader. God is not a warrior looking for blood or a ruler waiting to flex his power. Rather, the God revealed through Christ looks like a peaceful, humble, loving and slaughtered lamb. At the center of our Christian faith is a wounded lamb.
As Christmas comes this year, let’s remember at the center of the universe is a God who is willing to be put to death so that we may have life. God is willing to become humble and weak so we may no longer be defeated by sin and death. God comes as a baby, so He can die on a cross. The love of God is seen in unfathomable self-sacrifice. Jesus reigns as a wounded lamb. And for those reasons, we call people to look and see. The King has come, He King is unlike any other kingdom, and His Kingdom will have no end!
