How do we know that Jesus is the only mediator between God and man?

Answered in 4 sources

Jesus is uniquely qualified as the mediator because He is both fully God and fully man, fulfilling the law and making atonement for sin.

In Christian theology, Jesus Christ is recognized as the only mediator between God and man due to His unique dual nature as both fully God and fully man. This is foundational because, as God, He possesses the divine authority to represent God to humanity, and as man, He can represent humanity to God. His obedience and sacrificial death on the cross satisfied divine justice and fulfilled all righteousness required by God's law. Scriptures such as 1 Timothy 2:5 and Hebrews 7:25 affirm that Christ alone holds this mediatorial role, having achieved what no other could—a perfect offering for sin.
