What does Christ as the advocate of His people confess before the Father and His angels?
Answer
"He that overcomes, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the
book of life, but I will confess his name before My Father, and before His angels." Rev. 3: 5: See Matt. 10:
32, 33; Mark 8: 38.
NOTE - During this judgment scene, both the righteous and the wicked dead are still in their
graves. The record of each one's life, however, is in the books of heaven, and by that record their
characters and deeds are well known. Christ is there to appear in behalf of those who have chosen Him as
their advocate. 1 John 2: 1. He presents His blood, as He appeals for their sins to be blotted from the books
of record.
We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that everyone may receive the things done in his
body, according to that he bath done, whether it be good or bad." 2 Cor. 5: 10.
