How do we know the necessity of the Lamb in Christian faith?

Answered in 1 source

The necessity of the Lamb is rooted in God's demand for a perfect sacrifice for sins, exemplified in the Old Testament.

From the very beginning, God established that approaching Him requires a lamb, as seen in Exodus 12. This requirement teaches that there must be a sacrifice to atone for sin, highlighting God's holiness. The Lamb represents more than a ritual, as it is ultimately a picture of Jesus Christ, the perfect Lamb who takes away sin. The practice of sacrificing lambs in the Old Testament foreshadowed the ultimate sacrifice in Christ, who is presented in Revelation as the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, symbolizing victory and redemption for His people.
