[1 John 4:10]  CHRIST AS A SACRIFICE OF ATONEMENT G od presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished.  Romans 3:25. Our Advocate is Jesus Christ the righteous.
