How do we know Jesus Christ is our mediator?

Answered in 8 sources

Jesus Christ is our mediator because He is the only one who can bridge the gap between a holy God and sinful humanity through His perfect sacrifice.

Jesus Christ serves as our mediator because He is the great high priest who entered the holy of holies and offered a perfect sacrifice for our sins. Unlike the Levitical priests who needed to offer sacrifices repeatedly, Christ's single sacrifice was sufficient to atone for all the sins of His people (Hebrews 10:12). His work is complete, and He now sits at the right hand of God, signifying that there is nothing more to be done for salvation. By placing our faith in Him, we are united with His righteousness, making Him our perfect intercessor who reconciles us to God (Isaiah 53:5). This unique role of Jesus underscores the necessity of His mediatorship in the salvation of believers.
