Christ as Advocate

Christ pleads with God, he pleads with a just and righteous God, and therefore he must plead law, and nothing but law, and this he pleaded in both these pleas-First, in confessing of the sin he justified the sentence of the law in pronouncing of it evil, and then in his laying of himself, his whole self, before God for that sin, he vindicated the sanction and perfection of the law. Thus, therefore, he magnifies the law, and makes it honourable, and yet brings off his client safe and sound in the view of all the angels of God.
