There is no need for a middleman, for Jesus is God in the flesh. Focus: If you have ever bought a car, you know what a middleman is. The middleman is the person you meet that you are talking to and trying to make a deal with but can’t ever be the one to make any decision. So, you talk to him/her, and they go talk to the manager. Then they talk to the manager then come back to talk to you. You tell them something and the response is, “I’ve got to talk to my manager about this.” After a while you just want to get up and yell, “just bring your manager out here or someone who can actually do something.” Middlemen can be very frustrating. As great and nice and even as responsible as they may be, they are no substitute for the real thing. The book of Hebrews opens by telling us that with Jesus there is no middleman between us and God. Jesus is the real thing. He is God in the flesh. And salvation is ours because of Jesus. Instead of looking for life and salvation in all the wrong places, cut out the middleman and come to Jesus. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Him.
