LW Baptist Church

The Bible tells God’s people his great promises for them. Jesus refers to one of the picture-prophecies of himself “As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up that whoever believes in him may have eternal life,” John 3:1415. Jesus compares his saving work to God’s remedy for sinning Israel during their wilderness wanderings. Dying of poison snake bites, they cried out to Moses, “We have sinned; pray for us.” God had Moses raise on a post a bronze serpent, the emblem of death for sin. Whoever would believe God’s promise and look to the emblem of their sin and punishment on the post would live.
