Is Jesus enough for you? Or do you need another mediator between you and God?


Jesus is the only Mediator between God and Man
1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

Jesus is the only way to God.
Joh 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Jesus is the only name to find salvation in
Act 4:12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."

Jesus is above everything
Eph 1:21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.
Eph 1:22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church,
Eph 1:23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Jesus is the only shepherd to follow, the door to enter.
Joh 10:1 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber.
Joh 10:7 So Jesus again said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Joh 10:9 I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.

Jesus with all authority
Mat 28:18 And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Jesus above every name, no exceptions!
Phi 2:9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him name that is above every name,
Phi 2:10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
Phi 2:11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Jesus the advocate for you, You dont need anyoneone else to privilege for you.
1Jo 2:1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

Jesus is everything you need, and nothing more.
Joh 16:23 In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
Joh 16:24 Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

Dont worship anything then God (Father, Jesus, Holy Gost)
Col 2:18 Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels, going on in detail about visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind,






Beware of "Queen of Heaven"
Jer 7:16 "As for you, do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them, and do not intercede with me, for I will not hear you.
Jer 7:18 The children gather wood, the fathers kindle fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes for the queen of heaven. And they pour out drink offerings to other gods, to provoke me to anger.
Jer 44:17 But we will do everything that we have vowed, make offerings to the queen of heaven and pour out drink offerings to her, as we did, both we and our fathers, our kings and our officials, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For then we had plenty of food, and prospered, and saw no disaster.
Jer 44:18 But since we left off making offerings to the queen of heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked everything and have been consumed by the sword and by famine."
Jer 44:19 And the women said, "When we made offerings to the queen of heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, was it without our husbands' approval that we made cakes for her bearing her image and poured out drink offerings to her?"
Jer 44:25 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: You and your wives have declared with your mouths, and have fulfilled it with your hands, saying, 'We will surely perform our vows that we have made, to make offerings to the queen of heaven and to pour out drink offerings to her.' Then confirm your vows and perform your vows!
