JESUS IS OUR MEDIATOR

God is holy, and we are sinners, and there is a distance between us.

Isn’t this our problem? We know God is good. We know we are not, and we feel far from God. The ancient words of Job are ours, “If only there was a mediator who could bring us together.” (Job 9:33 NLT)

Oh, but there is! Jesus hasn’t left us with an unapproachable God. Yes, God is holy. Yes, we are sinful. But, yes, yes, yes, Jesus is our mediator. “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:5 NIV)
