    Looking at the man, the means and the mission of the Day of Atonement and appreciate the work of Christ. He is our Mediator and Advocate. He paid the price of sin and became our scapegoat, removing our sin for good. Let us be grateful and leave a mark.

    Leviticus 16:1-2, 11-22 THE SCAPEGOAT ES 21 Sep 14 1714 All of us has a scapegoat. We may not like the thought of it, but someone did become our scapegoat. • This phrase appears in Leviticus 16 and finds its ultimate fulfilment in the NT, in Jesus Christ. • That puts Leviticus 16 the ...read more

    Jesus turns that human sin on its head by becoming the scapegoat, by taking all sin onto His divine shoulders and letting the Romans and Jewish leaders nail His sacred Body to the cross.

    Tuesday of 2nd Week in Easter The great literary critic and philosopher René Noël Théophile Girard, was baptized in France with names that speak of Christmas, his birthday, and the love of God. He gave us the idea that all our desires are borrowed from other people, and that all ...read more

    The Ultimate Scapegoat

    What was the Scapegoat, and can it's function somehow be applied to Jesus? Christ made a one-time sacrifice and atonement to cover all sins. There is no more need for a scapegoat, as the Lamb of God became the final sin offering.

    I want to begin our sermon this morning by asking if you’ve ever before heard the word “scapegoat.” This term was coined by William Tyndale, the first great English Bible translator, who I will discuss a little further later on in our message. After Tyndale, the word came to be used for a person, ...read more

    The Scapegoat Reboot Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Oct 3, 2018
     | 4,443 views

    The two goats of the Day of Atonement represent two aspects of a "reboot": Making atonement for sin, thus rebooting the relationship with God, and 2) the scapegoat, rebooting ourselves by removing our guilt. The two aspects of atonement are both needed.

    THE SCAPEGOAT REBOOT—Leviticus 16 Your computer or phone is slow, or acting strangely. Is it a virus, or malware? Do you have a poor connection? What do you do? REBOOT. If that doesn’t work, recover or update, and then reboot. (Note to preacher: Scott Adams has a book on the comic strip, Dilbert: ...read more

    A look into the idea from the Day of Atonement of the "scapegoat." Jesus doesn't just forgive our sin - He removes our sin, like a goat being taken away into the desert.
