Close consideration to the calligraphic record of<br />
the Chinese will reveal an authentic record of their pristine<br />
religious concepts. To suggest anything good or<br />
prosperous, the lamb if was often used in a character.<br />
For example, good, virtuous, perfect $- in the more ancient<br />
writing is clearly $$ , where ?4 is $ words, and<br />

19:l I, 13). In another beautiful symbol, prosperity,<br />
happiness, auspicious #, God % and the lamb if are<br />
wedded to create the character representation.<br />
To portray the sinlessness of Christ, only unblemished,<br />

a burnt offering, both without blemish, and offer them<br />
before the Lord” (Leviticus 9: 2). This verse is exactly<br />

identical roots in the ancient past, as evidenced by the<br />
