How do we know Christ stands to plead for His people?

Answered in 1 source

Christ stands as the believer's advocate before God, representing them and establishing their righteousness.

The scripture assures us that Christ stands to plead for His people, acting as their advocate before God. This representation is vital because it signifies that we cannot approach God on our own due to our sinfulness. Christ, as our advocate, establishes our standing before the Father through His righteousness, as mentioned in Isaiah 3:13. He stands to affirm the merit of His sacrifice, ensuring that His people are justified and accepted in Him. This plea is not based on our goodness but on the perfection of Christ's work, giving us confidence in our salvation.
