The Bible explicitly states in Romans 8:34 that Christ is at the right hand of God making intercession for us, which affirms His ongoing advocacy.
Romans 8:34 provides a clear affirmation of Christ's intercessory work: 'who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.' This verse encapsulates the essence of Christ's role as our High Priest and Advocate. His position at the right hand of God signifies authority and favor, indicating that He not only intercedes with the Father but does so effectively. His resurrection confirms the sufficiency of His sacrifice, establishing that He is capable of representing us. Thus, believers can have confidence that Christ is continually advocating for them before God, regardless of their circumstances.
