Why is Christ's role as intercessor important for Christians?
Answered in 2 sources
Christ's intercessory role is important because it ensures believers are secure in their salvation and have an advocate before God.
Understanding Christ's role as an intercessor is crucial for Christians, as it brings comfort and assurance of salvation. His continuous intercession at the right hand of God signifies that our sins are not imputed to us. Romans 8:31-34 tells us, 'If God is for us, who can be against us?' This reinforces the idea that through Christ, we have a powerful advocate who continually pleads our case before the Father. Since Christ's intercession cannot fail, those for whom He intercedes will be kept by His power and ultimately saved to the uttermost.
