How do we know the doctrine of mediation is true?

Answered in 3 sources

The doctrine of mediation is established through Scripture, particularly seen in Jesus' role as our mediator in John 17.

The truth of the doctrine of mediation is firmly rooted in biblical teachings. Jesus, as the Son of God, fulfills the necessary role of mediator as expressed in John 17, where He prays for all who will come to faith through His word. Job 9:33 reflects this need for a mediator by stating that there is none between God and mankind, highlighting that it is only through Jesus Christ that we can approach the Father. Furthermore, 1 Timothy 2:5 states there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, clearly outlining the necessity and truth of this doctrine. It is through Christ's mediating role that we are assured of our relationship with God.
