Our Righteous Advocate 9/23 Monday Meditation

"My little children, these things I write unto you that ye may not sin.  And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous."  [I John 2:1]
I think that that is one of the most marvelous statements in the whole of the Epistles.  Seated at the Father's right hand is our righteous Advocate; and the minute that I break fellowship, He is there in fellowship with the Father.  I lose my sense of righteousness.  He is the Righteous One.  He is there, in the Presence of the Father, to plead my case.  (to be continued)
