"For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all." 1 Timothy 2:5-6

Sitting here having just keyed in the above verses, my heart is so filled with thanksgiving for God's great love for mankind that I must add the preceding four verses to help with the awesome significance of our opening verses.

"Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, For kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, Who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth."

God our Savior, Christ Jesus, who is seated at the right hand of The Father, He is THE mediator.
He is fully God,
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John1:1 Then Vs. 14 tells us, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us."
And He is fully Man,
"But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons." Galatians 4:4-5
Therefore:
As God He can represent God to man and as Man He can represent man to God.
Only He alone can do that!

The Letter to the Hebrews presents us with Christ's superior covenant, "But now He (Christ) has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises." Hebrews 8:6

"And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance." Hebrew 9:15

What is that reason? Vs. 12 tells us,
"Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.
(Also, read Vs. 13-14 for a fuller explanation) And, "For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us." Vs. 24

Once for ALL! BUT, yes there is a but! You must believe in Jesus.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."  John 3:16-18

I conclude by asking you to:
Read John 17, it is Jesus' prayer to the Father just before He is to be crucified. We see in the prayer His deity and humanity. We see His loving kindness and His tenderness. How precious and wonderful is our Savior, Mediator, Intercessor, Friend and Holy God!

Thank you Mighty God for Your loving and gracious plan for each of our lives! We love and adore You. Amen
