Pastor Ray opens up this study of the atonement with the character of God revealed in John 3:16. Understanding that God did not come down to demonstrate his fury against Jesus, but that God loved and God gave, helps us understand the two-fold work of Jesus through the type of the two goats in Leviticus 16. At Calvary, Jesus made full provision for the removal of sin for all mankind. The second half of that work is the removal of sin, accomplished in individuals who will die with Christ and be born again!
