Advocate

Lady of Light


In First John 2:1-3, We are told that Jesus is our advocate with the father:

"My little children, I write unto you that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments."

Many times do people get into situations where they need an advocate in this world - someone or organization that advocates for children, the handicapped or the elderly, for example. When we look at the above verses, we can realize we have the most important advocate in the person of Jesus Christ. In 1 John 1:9, it also tells us that if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

These verses are important for us and you can see that you can also see that we are referred to as "little children" because we are children of God. We need to confess our sins, seek cleansing and forgiveness and know that Jesus is not only our Savior, but our Advocate as well.

God bless you and have a great day!
