ONE MEDIATOR
For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
Paul reminds us of the unique role Jesus is in our relationship with God. There is one God, and Jesus is the One and only Mediator between us and God.
For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. 1 Timothy 2:5-6
Imagine having direct access to God through Jesus. He is not just any mediator; He bridges the gap between us and God.
Paul also talks about Jesus giving Himself as a ransom for all. He did not only act on behalf of a select few; His sacrifice was for everyone. That is the depth of His love and His mission to offer redemption to all who will believe.
Jesus did not only talk about it; He lived it. He gave Himself, His life, as the payment for our sins. His death on the cross was not a random event; it was deliberate, fulfilling the plan of God for salvation for humanity.
This incredible act of love was not meant to be hidden. It was to be testified in due time. The sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus are at the core of our faith, proclaimed throughout history, and still resonate today.
How does this impact us today?
It underscores the exclusivity of Jesus as the only way to God. In a world with many paths and beliefs, Jesus stands alone as the Mediator and Savior. It also emphasizes that salvation is for anyone who believes, no matter their past. No one is beyond the reach of His love and forgiveness.
Lastly, it challenges us to share this testimony with others. The gift of salvation is too big to keep to ourselves.
We need to live each day knowing that through Jesus, we have direct access to God and share this good news with a world that desperately needs it.
Heavenly Father, Thank You for the life that was made available for me through the death of Your Son, Jesus. This incredible act of love was not meant to be hidden. It was to be testified in due time. The sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus are at the core of my faith, proclaimed throughout history, and still resonate today. I am blessed to be a child of the King. Thank You, Father. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
