The Man in the Middle

In John 19:18, we are told that our Lord was crucified with two other men---“on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.” In those three men are represented all men as they are described in the word of God. On the left hand is represented all the natural sons of Adam who are condemned of God suffering that condemnation presently and soon to die not only a physical death but a second and eternal death. An eternal death where the worm dieth not and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth: A place called outer darkness and everlasting torment. These are they who shall be judged out of the books of God according to their works. They will be judged by that holy standard established by the obedience and death of Christ. (Acts 17: 31, Revelation 20: 11-15) This is the fate and sure end of every natural son of Adam who do not believe on and rest in the Lord Jesus Christ. (Mark 16: 16, John 3: 36)

On the cross on the right hand of our Lord is represented all of the elect of God. Equally guilty, condemned, and presently bearing the same evidence of the judgment of God. He has been set apart by an eternal act of grace. Before their fall in Adam, God chose them by sovereign election to a predestinated end as heirs through adoption by his Son, The Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 1: 5, 1: 11) Because of this sovereign purpose of God in Christ, their final end will not be the same as the man on the left. In the purpose of God he will have another to live and die on his behalf.

In Gods own time, because of that glorious work of his substitute, the spirit of the living God will intervene in his life and lead him to faith and repentance: He will call upon the name of the Lord and be saved. He will come to recognize Jesus of Nazareth as the long foretold savior of men and commit himself wholly and completely into his hands.

Hanging on the cross in the midst is the one mediator of God; the man Christ Jesus. He hangs there by the hand of God between heaven and earth baring our sins in his own body on the tree. May the Lord in his great mercy and grace teach us that the only difference between the man on the left and the one on the right is the man in the middle.
