We have one God and one mediator between God and men, the Christ Jesus

We have one God and one mediator between God and men, the Christ Jesus

1 Tim 2:5

For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time. 

Deut 6:4

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

Rom 3:29, 30

28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too, 30 since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.

Rom 10:12

12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

Gal 3:20

20 A mediator, however, implies more than one party; but God is one.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)    We have one God and one mediator between God and men, the Christ Jesus

2)    The Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

3)    God will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.

4)    For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him


5)    Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved
