Summary

In this 3-part series, Dr. Michael Youssef emphasizes the cross as God’s answer to humanity’s sin from the very beginning, revealing: • How animal sacrifices in the Old Testament prefigured Christ on the cross. • The four things Christ accomplished on the cross—atonement, redemption, justification, and reconciliation—and what that means for us today. • The significance of the last Passover, and Jesus’ eagerness to share it with His disciples. Discover the stunning backdrop of Easter in this enriching look at Biblical theology.
