The book of Numbers 21:4-9 holds a story of a sinful and rebellious people that were cursed with snakes that bit them. The only cure was a bronze serpent that God told Moses to make that if they looked upon it they could be healed. Jesus later refers to this when speaking to Nicodemus in John 3:14-15, but what relation does this serpent have to Jesus? In this sermon we take a look at why Jesus used the serpent as a foreshadowing of His death and what lessons that can teach us.
