How do we know Christ as our Advocate is true?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is our Advocate as affirmed in 1 John 2:1, where He intercedes for us when we sin.

1 John 2:1 assures us that Jesus Christ is our Advocate with the Father. This means that when we sin, we do not lose our standing before God because Christ stands in our place. He acknowledges our sins but pleads His atoning sacrifice on our behalf. This reinforces the doctrine of eternal security, as His work on the cross suffices for the full payment of our sin-debt. Thus, we can be confident of our reconciliation with God through Him.
