ref Jhn 1: 29-30
By Don Fortner
When it declares that Christ, the Lamb of God, "taketh away the sin of the world?" It means exactly what the Bible universally declares. "Christ died for sinners." "In due time Christ died for the ungodly." Every sinner in the world who believes on the Lord Jesus Christ has this assurance from God in the gospel - Christ took your sins away (Isa. 40: 1-2). God will never charge any believer with sin (Rom. 4:8). Find me a sinner! I have good news from God for sinners. "The Lamb of God taketh away the sin of the world!" He did not try to do it. He did it! He does not make it possible. He did it! If you trust him, Christ has taken your sin away forever! And your faith in him is the proof that he took your sin away when he died as the Lamb of God
