This office to be mediator, that is, to be prophet, priest, and king of the church of God, is so proper to Christ, that neither in whole, or any part thereof, it cannot be transferred from Him to any other.1
- Daniel 7:14 And to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed. Luke 1:33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” John 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. Acts 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.” 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, Hebrews 7:24 but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever. ↩︎
