For there is only one God and one Mediator
who can reconcile God and people.
He is the man Christ Jesus.
Since the beginning of time, people have tried to reach God. Men have established religion after religion to satisfy the longing hunger to know the true Supreme Being. Religion, however, is just a feeble effort by man to reach God. Unless we learn and accept that Jesus, not religion, is the true and only mediator between God and people, the search for a way to God will never end. 1 John 5:20 says, “And we know that the Son of God has come, and he has given us understanding so that we can know the true God. And now we are in God because we are in his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the only true God, and he is eternal life.” Reaching God is something that people aren't capable of pulling off on their own. Man had to be reached out to by the Son of God to enable any kind of relationship, and Jesus Christ alone is the mediator between God and men.

i really like this blog. my mommy thinks that her religion is going to save her from going to hell, and i keep praying for her (and telling her, too) to realize that what she really needs is Jesus. i really like how you said that people aren't capable of reaching God on their own. that's sooooo true! God had to reach out to us first. if he doesn't guide us, we'd be wandering around like a crack junkie. lol!
