How does Christ intercede for us according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Christ intercedes for believers, ensuring their salvation and constant access to God.

In Romans 8:34, after detailing Christ’s death and resurrection, Paul declares that Christ is at the right hand of God making intercession for believers. This means that Christ actively pleads their case before the Father. His intercession is essential because it assures believers that they are continually affirmed and defended against any accusations. The truth that 'He ever liveth to make intercession' (Hebrews 7:25) means that the work of salvation is not just a past event but an ongoing reality in which Christ sustains His people. No condemnation stands against those He intercedes for.
