What does the Bible say about needing a mediator with God?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible emphasizes the necessity of a mediator, particularly in Job 9:33, where Job expresses the need for a daysman between himself and God.
In the book of Job, Job laments the absence of a mediator, or 'daysman,' to intercede between himself and God. He recognizes that no man can stand in judgment against the Almighty without a mediator, emphasizing the profound gulf between fallen humanity and a holy God. Job's struggle reveals a universal truth for believers who, despite knowing God, often see their sin and desire assurance of their acceptance. This mediatorial role is fulfilled in Christ, who bridges the gap between God and man through His atoning sacrifice, making Him our ultimate daysman.
