Well..Is He?..
..............
Jesus is the sole mediator for Christians, obviosuly if one does NOT believe the Jesus Christ is the Son of God and is the mediator then he he can't be.
I agree,P Sac, of course our Lord is there for all,and truly He " is not far away from each one of us. " Anybody who reaches out towards him,even with very little faith,will be found by Him.

p.s dear Outlaw, I was so glad when I found out Jesus was a Mass mediator, and not a mass murderer as the Dubs teach.
LOL at Wobble.
Yes, Outlaw, Jesus is mediator for the masses - Jews first.
From The Message Bible:
Romans 1: 16 -17 It's news I'm most proud to proclaim, this extraordinary Message of God's powerful plan to rescue everyone who trusts him, starting with Jews and then right on to everyone else! God's way of putting people right shows up in the acts of faith, confirming what Scripture has said all along: "The person in right standing before God by trusting him really lives."
1 Timothy 2: 4 -7 He wants not only us but everyone saved, you know, everyone to get to know the truth we've learned: that there's one God and only one, and one Priest-Mediator between God and us—Jesus, who offered himself in exchange for everyone held captive by sin, to set them all free. Eventually the news is going to get out. This and this only has been my appointed work: getting this news to those who have never heard of God, and explaining how it works by simple faith and plain truth.
1 John 2:1 -2 I write this, dear children, to guide you out of sin. But if anyone does sin, we have a Priest-Friend in the presence of the Father: Jesus Christ, righteous Jesus. When he served as a sacrifice for our sins, he solved the sin problem for good—not only ours, but the whole world's.
Just remember, Jesus is also the SOLE Master and we are all brothers and sisters EQUALLY, Jesus is the SOLE high priest and we are all "priests" equally, there is no "hierachy" in Christianity other than 1A)God the Father, 1B)Jesus the Son and all the rest of Us.

It`s amazing the difference between how a Christian thinks..
And..

It is, indeed. No wonder I was miserable before I exited the JW's.

It's quite a job, for an angel. Unless, that angel is also god. Christianity makes more sense than jwism.

Jesus being God, that POV, was "arrived" at by, amongst other things, understanding the role of Jesus in the NC.
See, in the old covenant, the Saviour and redeemer and Judge of ALL was God, but in the NC it is Jesus.
How can Jesus "take the place of God" unless he is God ?
We know that this role and all the "power and authority" that came with it, was given to Jesus on his ressurection, when he sat at the right hand of God and began his rule over all, whe know this because the bible tell us that in various places.
Christianity makes more sense than jwism.
I`ve never understood the WBT$ Cult..
They`re attempt at a Non-Christian,Christian-Religion is Self Defeating..
Failure is Built,into the WBT$ Cult..
