What This Man Did For Us [35:19]
by Chuck Jones rated at 1.0 (5 votes so far)
A great gulf existed between God and man. Blind sinners were unable to approach the eternal Father. A "go-between" was needed. Someone to lift us up. And then came the man Christ Jesus, the great Mediator between God and sinners. Scriptures: Isaiah 1:18; 57:15; Zechariah 13:7; Deuteronomy 17:14,15; 18:15; 5:23-25; 1 Timothy 2:5; Romans 5:15-19; 8:29; Ephesians 4:20-23; 1 Corinthians 15:20; 3:3

Is Jesus Called Yahweh in Romans 10.13?

Joel 2:32 was also quoted by Peter at Acts 2:21 while preaching to Jews who had not accepted Jesus as the Christ (Messiah). Unlike Peter, Paul was not addressing unbelievers, but Roman Christians. They already understood that ‘calling upon the name of the Lord’ God included accepting Jesus as Lord and Christ. Jesus said that “no one comes to the Father, but by me.” Therefore, one has to call upon Jesus (the name means Yahweh Saves) to call upon Yahweh God. So while there appears to be a blurring of the scriptural application in Romans 10:13, there is no warrant for trinitarian conclusions. -- John 14:6
