The Atonement, the Advocacy, and the Advent<\/p>\n
"By Whom we have now received the atonement" (Rom_5:11).<\/p>\n
"We have an Advocate with the Father" (1Jn_2:1).<\/p>\n
"Looking for that blessed hope" (Tit_2:13).<\/p>\n
We have before us three great words all beginning with the letter "A." When we say "Atonement," your minds go at once to the Cross; when we say "Advocacy," your minds are led toward the risen, ascended and seated Lord; when we say "Advent," you at once think of Christ coming in the clouds of Heaven.<\/p>\n
The "Atonement" was the work of Christ suffering for us, "the Just for the unjust that He might bring us to God" (1Pe_3:18).<\/p>\n
The "Advocacy" is the work of Christ interceding for us at the Father’s right hand.<\/p>\n
The "Advent" begins the work of Christ among us, after He comes again to this inhabited world and sets up His Kingdom.<\/p>\n
The "Atonement" of Christ presents the basis upon which we, as sinful men, can approach unto God.<\/p>\n
The "Advocacy" of Christ presents the ground upon which we have our daily approach, as saints, unto the Father.<\/p>\n
The "Advent" of Christ presents the blessed hour when Christ comes to dwell with us and we shall be "forever with the Lord."<\/p>\n
The "Atonement" speaks of Christ suffering for us, the "Advocacy," of Christ interceding for us, and the "Advent," of Christ reigning with us.<\/p>\n
The "Atonement" settles the sin question and considers us accepted of the Father; the "Advocacy" settles the "sinning of saints" question, and "saves us unto the uttermost;" the "Advent" forever places raptured saints beyond the dominion and power of satan and of sin, and grants us our eternal inheritance with saints in light.<\/p>\n
