Why is Christ as our mediator important?

Answered in 1 source

Christ as our mediator is essential because He intercedes between God and humanity, fulfilling the law on our behalf.

The importance of Christ as our mediator is highlighted in the reality that no human can bridge the gap between a holy God and sinful humanity. Moses served as an earthly mediator but was also a sinner. In contrast, Christ, being both fully God and fully man, perfectly fulfilled the requirements of the law and took upon Himself the judgment for our sins. As stated in 1 Timothy 2:5, 'For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus'. Thus, Christ’s role as mediator assures that our relationship with God is reconciled through His righteousness, allowing believers to receive grace and forgiveness based on His finished work.
