In this article we look further at this son of man who is our saviour and mediator between God and man.… Read More When you believe Jesus is God: who do you think is the mediator? #2 Firstborn from the dead our advocate

“Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature (or years) and in favour with God and man” (Luke 2:52).
