Worthy is the Lamb - Ed Tucker

From Genesis to Revelation, this message traced one scarlet thread: the Lamb. In the Old Testament, the patterns point forward—garments of skin in Eden, Abel’s lamb, Noah’s ark of sacrificed trees, the Passover lamb’s blood, the Day of Atonement, and Abraham on Mount Moriah. In the Gospels, the shadow becomes substance: “Behold, the Lamb of God”—identified by John, certified by the Father, vilified and crucified, then raised in power. Because Jesus was born a Savior, died as our atonement, and rose as Lord, our hope rests not in our goodness but in His blood.

The story culminates in Revelation 5: heaven thunders, “Worthy is the Lamb!” He alone opens the scroll; He has redeemed people from every nation and made us kings and priests. At Christmas—and always—we don’t worship a feeling or a tradition; we worship the Lamb who was slain and lives forever. Our salvation isn’t our plan B; it’s God’s finished plan. So we join the song of heaven: Worthy is the Lamb.
