Mascot: Lion—Jesus is called the Lion of Judah. He is the righteous one who freely gave his righteousness to His people. When we trust in Jesus He exchanges our wickedness for his righteousness. He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins. With Christ’s righteousness, we are protected by Him, the great Lion, from the World, the flesh, and the Devil. Without Christ’s righteousness, we will be consumed. He is not safe, but He is good.
