Why did John the Baptist, upon seeing Jesus for the first time
exclaim, in John 1:29b:

"Look, the lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!"?

God accepted Jesus' sacrificial death on "THE CROSS" as an atonement
for "the Sin of mankind". And, through the power of God, God
raised Jesus from the dead on that first Resurrection Sunday, which
we call --- Easter!!!
