Advocate - Jesus Christ Our

 
Bible Questions Answered:
“...I believe Jesus is there to help us...”
Jeremy/ Townsville, Queensland Australia

Bible Answer:

Bible Texts:

I John 1:8-2:2
8 If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in The Truth.
9 But if we confess our sins to Him, He is Faithful and Just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.
10 If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that His word has no place in our hearts.

2:1 My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an Advocate* who pleads our case before The Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous.
2 He Himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins—and not only our sins but the sins of all the world.

*Advocate-Greek: Parakletos (Par-ak-lay-tos): Intercessor, Counselor: Advocate, Comforter.

At the right hand of The Father, our Savior, Mediator, Advocate, Intercessor, is there to plead for us.

Jesus Christ Our Advocate, Intercessor, Mediator:

Isaiah 53:12 KJV (For Sinners)
Therefore will I divide Him a portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil with the strong; because He hath poured out His soul unto death: and He was numbered with the transgressors; and He bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Luke 22:32 KJV (For believers)
But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

Luke 23:34 KJV (For enemies)
Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

John 14:16 KJV (Sending The Holy Spirit.)
And I will pray The Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever;

John 17:9 KJV (The Church)
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given Me; for they are thine.

Romans 8:34 NLT (Believers)
Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to Life for us, and He is sitting in the place of honor at God’s Right Hand, pleading for us.

I Timothy 2:5 KJV
For there is one God, and one Mediator* between God and men, The Man Christ Jesus;

*Mediator-Greek: Mesites (Mes-ee-tace): Go-between, reconciler (intercessor): mediator.

Hebrews 7:25 KJV (Our Savior, Mediator)
Wherefore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Hebrews 8:6 NLT
But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood, for He is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises.

Hebrews 9:15,24 NLT
15 That is why He is the one who mediates a new covenant between God and people, so that all who are called can receive the eternal inheritance God has promised them. For Christ died to set them free from the penalty of the sins they had committed under that first covenant.
24 For Christ did not enter into a holy place made with human hands, which was only a copy of the true one in heaven. He entered into heaven itself to appear now before God on our behalf.

Hebrews 12:24 NLT
You have come to Jesus, the one who mediates the new covenant between God and people, and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks of forgiveness instead of crying out for vengeance like the blood of Abel.

Every day, we come short of the glory of God.

Romans 3:23 KJV
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

And we will never know perfection, until we are before The Lord.

I John 3:2 KJV
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.

This means that we need an Intercessor, a Mediator, and Advocate to The Father, and we have one

I John 2:1 KJV
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with The Father, Jesus Christ The Righteous:

At The Right Hand Of The Father, our Savior, Intercessor, is interceding for His people.
Our Lord, told Peter....

Luke 22:32 KJV
But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

Today, our wonderful Savior, is interceding for us.

Abide With Me

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;
Earth’s joys grow dim; its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

I need Thy presence every passing hour.
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Prayer:

I John 1:8-10 KJV
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and The Truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, He is Faithful and Just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.

I John 5:1,11-13 KJV
1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is The Christ has become a child of God..."
11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us Eternal Life, and this Life is in His Son.
12 He that hath The Son hath Life; and he that hath not The Son Of God hath not Life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of The Son Of God; that ye may know that ye have Eternal Life, and that ye may believe on the name of The Son Of God.
