But the sacrifice of Jesus will tell the truth, expose the lie, and become the sacrifice to end sacrificing. And just as Isaac’s story did not end at Moriah, so Jesus’ story does not end at Golgotha. Lord Jesus, help us to be like Abraham and put down the knife; help us to understand that no one ever again needs to be put to death in order to accomplish the will of God; help us to be the children of God who choose mercy over sacrifice. Amen.
