How do we know Christ is our advocate?

Answered in 11 sources

We know Christ is our advocate because the Scriptures specifically declare Him to be so, and He has fulfilled the requirement of righteousness.

The certainty that Christ is our advocate rests on the authority of Scripture, particularly in 1 John 2:1. John distinctly tells us that Jesus is our advocate, emphasizing His righteousness as critical to this role. As believers, our assurance in His advocacy comes from our faith in His completed work—His life, death, and resurrection satisfy the demands of God's law, allowing us to be declared not guilty. This assurance is rooted in the promise that Christ intercedes for us before God, affirming our belief in Him as Savior.
