I John 2:1-6. You may know that you have eternal life: I need an Advocate.

Rev. Curtis Deterding pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Fort Myers, FL joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study I John 2:1-6.

We all need an advocate who will stand up for us when we are unable to stand up for ourselves. It is the righteous Christ who took on our sins, made the payment for our salvation, and has done all of this for the whole world. In this payment, we joyfully follow His commandments, repenting as we fall, but comforted that the Savior of the world is there as our Helper. Help to confess Jesus as LORD, help to follow His commands, and help to serve others. “O Holy Spirit, as You are our Advocate, help us to believe and follow the Lord’s commands. O Jesus Christ, as You are our Advocate, thank You for making our payment and fill us with Your promises to help us in everything. In Your name, Amen”
