Christ: Our and Mediator and Intercessor

“. . . Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better that the blood of Abel”

Hebrews 12: 24.

By Christ’s intercession I gather, that awakened men and women such as the godly are, dare not, after offence given, come in their own names to make unto God an application for mercy. God, in himself, is a consuming fire and sin has made the best of us as stubble is to fire. Wherefore, they may not, they cannot, they dare not approach God’s presence for help but by and through a mediator and intercessor.

When Israel saw the fire, the blackness and darkness, and heard the thunder, and lightning, and the terrible sound of the trumpet, “they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.” (Exodus 20: 19; Deuteronomy 18: 16) Guilt and sense of the disparity that is betwixt [between] God and us will make us look out for a man that may lay his hand upon us both and that may set us right in the eyes of our Father again. This . . . I infer from the intercession of Christ. For, if there had been a possibility of our ability to have approached God with advantage without, what need had there been of the intercession of Christ?

Absalom durst [did] not approach—no, not the presence of his father—by himself, without a mediator and intercessor. Wherefore, he sends to Joab to go to the king and make intercession for him. Also, Joab durst [did] not go upon that errand himself but by the mediation of another. Sin is a fearful thing; it will quash and quail the courage of a man and make him afraid to approach the presence of him whom he has offended though the offended is but a man.
