Christ's Work as an Advocate
By: T. Ernest Wilson

 

Christ’s work as advocate comes into operation as soon as we sin. We have a lovely word in Africa used to express this idea. An advocate or comforter is sometimes called a "kasendo mukwashi."

 

The first word, "Kasendo", means "A blood brother," one with whom a solemn covenant sealed in blood has been made.

The second word, "mukwashi", means "One who helps by laying hold."

 

The Lord is both to us.
