There isn’t a greater contrast than a lion and a lamb. Each is almost everything the other is not. In fact, the lamb would make a great meal for a lion. Yet in Revelation, the lion and the lamb are the same being. The strong, powerful lion is the same meek and sacrificial lamb that climbed that hill of Calvary. Why did the lion assume the demeanour of a lamb when its life was under threat? It had to do with love. It was out of love that the great powerful lion chose to be the sacrificial lamb. Jesus – the Lion and the Lamb, worthy of all honour, glory and praise. Jesus, the Lion and the Lamb.
