What role did Jesus fulfill as our apostle?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus fulfilled the role of our apostle by executing the will of the Father to provide salvation for His people.

As our apostle, Jesus was sent to accomplish the great work of salvation, representing the Father’s intentions perfectly. He stated in John 6:38, 'I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.' This encapsulates His role as the sent one whose mission was to save those whom the Father had given Him. By fulfilling the law, undergoing crucifixion, and triumphantly rising from the dead, Jesus executed every aspect of the salvation plan, ensuring that all who believe in Him are counted among the elect. Thus, He secured not only their temporal salvation but also their eternal standing before God, manifesting divine love and grace.
