Jesus Christ, our Intecessor

God through Isaiah wrote prophecy about Christ:

Isa 53:12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

God through Paul assured us that His Spirit intercedes for us:

Rom 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

God through Paul told us that Christ Himself prays on our behalf:

Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

From Heb 7:22, speaking of Christ, the scripture says:

Heb 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

There is commonality through the Bible that Jesus Christ entreats His Father for His people. Now there is 'no difference' (Peter said it in Acts 15:9; Paul wrote it in Rom 3:22 and 10:12).
‘Mid-Acts-ers’ need to get ahold of that .... instead of ignoring it!

This is David Dowell, saying, "Think about it!"
