Excerpt from The Mediatorial Work of Our Lord Jesus Christ The words Mediation and Mediatorial, are employed in the ensuing pages, with reference to the office of the Son of God, by which He is the medium and agent of all divine manifestations. He is contemplated as standing between the invisible One and creatures: as bringing into existence, preserving and governing all dependent beings, and as possessing in himself the attributes and perfections which are manifested in His works of creation, providence and grace - "the image of the invisible God" - "God manifest in flesh." In the Scriptures, the Mediator is represented in different aspects, as the creator and upholder of the dependent universe, the providential and moral governor, the redeemer of lost men, the final judge and rewarder; as the head and ruler of the kingdom created by him, and as accomplishing by his works an outward and visible manifestation of the divine perfections, counsels and purposes.
