Drawing the Line for Truth: Biblical Interposition and the Culture

March 14, 2021 • Sam Rohrer, Gary Dull, Matt Trewhella

The role of the Pastor encompasses many different job descriptions in the Bible. He is a Shepherd of the ‘sheep’, a Minister of God for righteousness; a truth teller and light bearer, and a servant of Jesus Christ to the people.

On this program, we’ll be talking about another job description of not only the local pastor, but believers also. It’s the job of interposition.

In laymen’s terms, it’s the idea that one uses their position of lesser authority to intervene in the mistreatment of others by a higher authority who is acting unjustly or unlawfully.

There are many examples of this in Scripture and throughout history. You might recall the story of Esther-who interposed on behalf of her people whose very lives were threatened by the evil machinations of Haman.

So, what does this have to do with us and why is it important we understand our role as ‘interposers’? Well, the answer to this question and more will become abundantly clear as we consider the theme for today’s program- Drawing the Line for Truth: Biblical Interposition and the Culture.
