How do we know that Jesus is our intercessor?

The certainty of Jesus as our intercessor is grounded in Scripture, particularly in passages that affirm His eternal priesthood. Hebrews 7:24 emphasizes that Jesus has an 'unchangeable priesthood' and through His Sacrifice, He became the High Priest for His people, making Him uniquely qualified to intercede for them. His role as intercessor stems from His perfect righteousness and the completion of His sacrificial work. Furthermore, Romans 8:34 reinforces this truth, stating that 'Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.' This continual representation before the Father assures believers of their standing and acceptance in Christ, providing a foundation for their faith and trust in God's promises.
