How do we know Christ intercedes for His people?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture confirms that Jesus intercedes for His elect at the right hand of God, ensuring their justification and acceptance.

Christ's intercession is central to our understanding of salvation. According to Romans 8:33-34, it is Christ who justifies, and He intercedes for those whom God has elected. This means that His presence before the Father serves as an eternal assurance for believers. When God looks at His elect, He sees them as righteous because they are clothed in the righteousness of Christ. The judge of all the earth acts justly, meaning He will not punish the righteous because their sins have already been atoned for by Christ's sacrifice. Therefore, Christ’s intercession is not a mere request, but rather an affirmation of the justice served through His death and resurrection, reinforcing that His people are secure in their salvation.
