Day
26 – Jesus Christ Is My Advocate 1My dear
children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does
sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. 2He is
the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins
of the whole world. 1 John 2 NIV @ http://biblehub.com/niv/1_john/2.htm And
at the Matthew Henry Commentary located @ http://biblehub.com/1_john/2-1.htm
*Special
Affirmation – As a Believer,
I have been admonished not to sin, however, if I make a mistake and sin, my
Father God has blessed me with an advocate. My Advocate is Jesus Christ, the
Righteous One who is the atoning sacrifice for my sins as well as the sins of
the whole world.
Who
Better to Be the World’s Advocate when Sin is a Factor and Evident in Our Lives
because Jesus
Christ is the Great I AM Who is also God in the Physical!!!
Jesus Christ claimed to be the “I AM.” It is the personal name of the God of
the Old Testament (Exodus 3:13-14). On several occasions, it is recorded that Jesus used the “I AM” formula in attesting to His deity. He claimed to be the
LORD God, Jehovah, Yahweh. The greatest of all the names for the Lord Jesus
Christ is the “I AM.” This is why the apostle Paul wrote: “God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on
Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee
will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that
every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the
Father” (Philippians 2:9-11). Jesus is Lord. The name that is above all other
names is “Lord,” and it is equivalent to “Jehovah” or Yahweh. This is the exact
equivalent to the words, “I AM.” The name that is above all earthly and
heavenly names is Yahweh, the great “I AM THAT I AM.” The apostle Paul tells us
that the Lord Jesus is so above all other beings that all who are in heaven and
the earth will bow and worship Him. He is God. He is not one among many gods,
but the One and Only (Acts 4:12; 1 Timothy 2:5; 1 Corinthians 8:4). – Read More Commentary @ http://www.abideinchrist.com/selah/mar19.html ; And at the

Your Advocate Always Wins Your Case
By Crissy Vaughn
“1 John 2:1
“My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And
if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the
righteous.” If you want a glimpse of
some real-life celestial drama, picture this: God the Father sits as Judge of
the universe with Jesus Christ at His right hand, who is not only your High
Priest but also your Advocate. When your accuser, the devil, comes along and
says, “You have done this wrong and you have not done that right,” Jesus says,
“Father, the devil is right, but My blood has paid for what the devil is
accusing him of.” ” – Read Complete

Christ’s Mediating Ministry – He is Our
Advocate
By Amazing Discoveries TM
“An advocate or mediator is someone
who is on your side—a person who speaks in your defense so that you can receive
a fair judgment. An advocate is like a lawyer in a jury trial that defends the
one being charged with a crime. When God set up the earthly tabernacle and its
system, He was giving an indication of what will take place during the final
judgment of this world’s history. The heavenly court, however, is unlike any
court in the world. The lamb that was slain for the sinner in the earthly
tabernacle symbolizes how in the heavenly court the guilty party has someone
who is willing to take their punishment. This, of course, is Jesus, who died on
the cross for our sins. An active participant in the earthly sanctuary was
the high priest. This very important person would plead the case of the sinful
people in the holy place daily…” – Read Complete Commentary @
