How do we know Jesus Christ is our true advocate?

Answered in 1 source

We know Jesus Christ is our advocate because He is always with the Father and pleads for us based on His righteousness.

John emphasizes the importance of Jesus Christ being our advocate by stating that He is 'with the Father' (1 John 2:1). This indicates His constant presence and accessibility before God, ensuring that our pleas for mercy are heard. Additionally, His position as 'Jesus Christ the Righteous' confirms that He advocates for us not based on our weak justification but on His perfect righteousness. His successful advocacy is rooted in His own work of atonement as our propitiation, which assures us that the Father hears Him.
