This title 'the lamb of God' is used by John the Baptist:

John 1:29-36), "Behold, the Lamb of God, that takes away the sin of the world!"

It is generally understood as referring to the prophetic language of Jeremiah 11:19, and Isaiah 53:7.

The lamb was a sacrificial animal among the Jews. God had taught His chosen people to slay a lamb and to sprinkle its blood as a sacrifice. The lamb was killed as a substitute and its blood shed so that sins might be forgiven.

The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!The phrase "paschal lamb" refers back to the lamb that the children of Israel were told to sacrifice before God led them out of Egypt. By sacrificing the lamb and painting it's blood on their doorpost the people were saved from God's judgment on the land of Egypt. This was the only way they could be saved from God's judgmentToday the only way a person can be saved from God's judgment to come is through Christ's sacrifice as the "lamb of God".1John 5:11-13 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.

Why do people listen to the Lamb of God?

People listen to the Lamb of God (Jesus Christ) because He is the Savior. He is the One who can save your soul from hell if you listen to Him and obey Him (John 14:6), " I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me". God is drawing people to Himself by the Holy Spirit. But you cannot just go to God. You have to accept His Son the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior and then God will accept you as His child.
