PART 2: JESUS THE TRUE MEDIATOR


John 14:6 “I am …the truth; No man comes unto the Father but by Me”.


A summary of the fundamental arguments presented before in Part 1 of this series are worth considering:


1. By committing the original sin, Adam fell from his perfect state into a sinful or depraved nature, which he transmitted into his offspring through birth, and hence became a federal head, so that “In Adam all die” 1 Cor. 15: 22.

JESUS THE EXCLUSIVE WAY-(PART 1)

Written by On Monday, 16th September 2013

John 14:6 “Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me.”


Jesus here makes quite an exclusive declaration, wherein He defines Himself by three elements, viz., the way, the truth and the life, and immediately links these three elements with His function as a mediator in the statement that follows; “no man comes unto the Father but by Me”. In order to understand the exclusiveness which this declaration bears on Jesus, we shall attempt to separately link the mediation function of Jesus with these three elements.

DO NOT WORRY

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry ...." Matt. 6:25ff

It is interesting that when u worry you cease to work effectively; in effect, worry tops your mental activities and in a way becomes your top priority. And as you continue to entertain worry in ua mind, you find uaself wasting alot of ua productive time, and eventually u realize that you havent gained anything by so worrying (Cf. verse 27)

Do not let worry to become ua priority. Cast out fear with faith, worry with work. Our Lord Jesus Christ desires that we live a sound minded and productive life that is dominated not by anxiety and worry, but with fervency for work.

Let us therefore like Him say, "My Father works, and so do I" John 5:17

UPS AND DOWNS

2 SAMUEL 15, 16…

When we sin, it becomes our Father’s business to administer the most effective chastisement in order to restore us into a relationship with Him. Inasmuch as we are converted as Christians, but not entirely. Sin resides in us, and it is not a wonder to see the holiest and mightiest Christian, like David, falling into a sin that will make observes to shiver. Yet, inasmuch as God forgives our sins when we confess and repent as David did, in order to prove to us that He does not by His grace and forgiveness license us to sin, He employs the most painful and deterrent measures to ensure that we suffer the consequences of our sins, to the intent that we do desire to sin no more.
