Jesus is our mediator as He presents us before the Father, granting us access and acceptance by His righteousness.
According to scripture, particularly Hebrews 2:11-13, Jesus is explicitly described as the one who is not ashamed to call us brethren. He mediates between us and the Father, providing the essential access we need to God. As Joseph introduced his brethren to Pharaoh, so Christ introduces us to God, ensuring that we can stand before Him accepted. Without this mediation, we would have no audience with God. John 14:6 further underscores this truth, presenting Jesus as the exclusive way to the Father. We can thus affirm that Jesus’ role as our mediator is foundational to our relationship with God, making it possible for us to share in His righteousness and fullness.
