The scapegoat carries the sins of the people, and is led away.

Jesus is the scapegoat for our sins, and our high priest.

Legend indicates the Levitical system stopped working around a.d. 30.

We must not live in shame and guilt, because the goat has left the building.

In Christ, we become new creations, fundamentally defined as saints.

Jesus, the ultimate scapegoat, took our sin so we could live free.

Rejoice, because our great high priest completed his work and sat down.

Our world needs to see people who celebrate that Christ has set us free.
