John the Baptist’s words about Jesus being the Lamb of God highlight that being a Christian means having a personal connection with Jesus, not just living a certain way or following a set of rules. The way a city can change because of Christianity is shown in the good lives that Christians lead, helping people realize that Jesus is at the heart of being a Christian. John the Baptist’s special understanding of himself and of Jesus is an example of brave, unwavering leadership, reminding us to concentrate on Jesus instead of our own mistakes.
