Christ Our Advocate

2My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, ^ywe have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. ²^zHe is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but ^aalso for the sins of the whole world.

Read in Logos
