166 - The Mediator

Overview- The Mediator. 1 Timothy 2:5-7. In our sermon today we studied one of the most powerful verses in the Bible. 1 Tim 2:5- For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus. This verse declares the fact that there is only one God, (as the world would have a big problem with that) and that there is only one mediator or someone that goes to God for us to carry our prayers to Him, the man Jesus Christ. But, there are many over the last millennia, centuries, and in our world today that would say that we can pray to other Biblical historical figures like Mary the mother of Jesus, and the saints of old, and they can take our prayers to God, just like Jesus Christ does. And so we have these two contradicting points to the one main point of this verse, but what does the whole Bible have to say on this matter? Can we pray to Mary the mother of Jesus and the saints of old, or, is Jesus really the only one that can take our prayers to God, as Paul says in 1 Tim 2:5? This is a very controversial scripture to some, but very simple to others. I answer these questions and explain much in the way of these points in this sermon titled, The Mediator. Come and take a listen and hear exactly just what the whole Bible has to say on these points that many disagree on. May God richly bless you as you seek Him Pastor Ed
