1 Timothy 2:5-6
5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.
I am so glad I was not born an Egyptian, Roman, or Greek in ancient times. I am very sure I would never be able to keep up with all the gods, goddesses, and demi-gods. Seriously, we can’t people to serve one God, can you imagine multiple. One place on the internet said there were 12 main Roman gods, but with all the demi and local gods, it could actually be up to 57. That makes my head spin.
Have you ever had to report to more than one person? Maybe you had different bosses or at least different levels of bosses. Do they always agree? I have been in a couple of situations where I could certainly say, “NO!” I had to remember which one I was talking to so I would know how to address situations.
Yep, I am very happy that we serve One God and Jesus stands between us to mediate. We know what the plan was and is at all times. We know all of the expectations. We can have a relationship with our one God and not spend time making sure we are sucking up to the right god at the right time in order to survive. I am also glad that because of Jesus, our God offers us grace and helps us grow, and is never waiting to say gotcha. All in all, I am just glad to be a Christian.
Lord, I so appreciate everything you do for me. I love that we can have a relationship and you are not just some far away being here interferes with my life when he feels like it. ~amen
