Christ is Our Intercessor

1 Timothy 2:5-6
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
Without the selflessness of Jesus Christ we would have no chance of salvation or spending eternity with God in Heaven. It is only by Grace and Mercy of God that we have that ability today.
In Isaiah 64:6 it says 6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
As good as we may think we are each day.. We are nothing more than sinners in the sight of God. And yet knowing we were sinners. And that time and time again we have proved we are not worthy of His love and Mercy. He still offers it anyway. In Romans 5:8-11 it reads:
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
I am thankful everyday that Christ had compassion and love for us that he would give His life here on Earth so that we could have eternal life in Heaven.
