"Jesus our Advocate" 1 John 2:1-2

Jesus' one time perfect sacrifice has set all who receive the gift of salvation and life in Him free from the power and penalty of sin. The children of God are no longer slaves to sin because they have a new nature. It doesn't mean we don't have the ability to sin, for we most certainly do. It is simply that sin is no longer our identity. When we do sin we have an advocate and comforter that declares our perfect forgiveness and cleansing. Because He is our righteousness we no longer have to hide or attempt to gain His favor. We can be honest with ourselves and others about our failings. We are now free to identify all actions and attitudes that our contrary to who He has made us to be and say the same thing He says about those things and thank Him for His wonderful forgiveness. He is our propitiation for sin, and not only ours but for the sins of the world for all who will receive His gift by grace through faith. This is wonderful good news for a hurting world.
