Mediator
The One Between
Description
There is one God and one Mediator between God and men—the man Christ Jesus. A mediator stands between two parties to reconcile them. Jesus bridges the infinite gap between holy God and sinful humanity. He is qualified to mediate because He is both God and man—able to represent both parties. He is the mediator of the new covenant, securing eternal redemption. Through Him we have access to the Father. No one comes to the Father except through Him.
