When we consider what a mediator does in a modern context, we might immediately have some modern conflicts come to mind. It's only natural for these modern conflicts to shape our view of the role itself.
When we consider Jesus as our Mediator before the Father, do we allow some of the horrible conflicts that modern Mediators deal in to shape our understanding of what He is doing for us? If so, we might be in danger of, not only, misunderstanding the role of Jesus Christ, but also misunderstanding the disposition of the Father towards us.
Jesus as Mediator acts as a conduit for us to run back to the Father, not as a shield against the hatred we believe the Father might have for us. It's true, our sin needed dealt with and there is a lot of anger/enemy language in those contexts that can't be ignored, but they shouldn't cause us to think that the Father is vengeful and hateful towards us when He is the One who SENT the Mediator as a way to repair the relationship between us that we broke in the first place.
