Jesus is affirmed as our mediator because He uniquely represents both God and mankind, having fulfilled the law and completed the sacrifice for our sins.
In his role as the God-man mediator, Christ stands uniquely between God and humanity. As described in Psalm 47 and echoed throughout Scripture, after He completed His work of salvation, He sat down at the right hand of God, signifying that the sacrifice was accepted. This mediation is rooted in His identity as both fully God and fully man, allowing Him to represent us before the Father. He is our mediator who intercedes for us, understand our weaknesses, and advocates for our needs according to God's will.
