As we pray and witness let us lead the lost to the only hope there is for salvation. There is no other way, the gospel is clear and direct. Jesus is the only and true way.
“For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,”
1 Timothy 2:5 NIV
The Greek word Mesitēs (mediator) is the one person that can intervene between two individuals to restore peace. Jesus is this person, He is the only one, there is no other. It’s only through Jesus that the relationship with God can be restored. Many people have a problem with this single, exclusive claim, made in scripture. They are missing the point. In our world, we want options and choices. The reality is after the fall and looking at how we have traded all to chase after sin, we do not deserve even one way. Yet, in His mercy, He has made a way for us. Instead of grumbling that there is only one way, the lost should rejoice that God provided, “away”. So then as we pray and witness let us lead them to the mediator, the only one that can go between God and man. The only one that can intervene and restore a right relationship with God. We must show them the cross, the empty tomb, and the risen savior, Jesus Christ our Lord.
