1 Timothy 2:5 (KJV) Just One

1 Timothy 2:5 (KJV)
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

This passage is notable for its singular nature:

• One God
• One mediator
• The man Christ Jesus

For this reason it is remarkable to find such a plurality in the midst of it. Fact is, I think I have misquoted it for years saying, “between God and man”. The verse says “men”. Plural=more than one. I believe in fact it means “all men”.

One mediator is sufficient for all men. God, who is one, is appeased not by the multiplicity of mediators:

• Mohammed for the Muslims
• Buddha for the oriental people’s
• Spiritism for the animists

There is but one mediator necessary and only one mediator that is acceptable to God, the man Christ Jesus.
