In this Religion Today episode, using scriptures and statements of General Authorities, host Martin Tanner explains exactly how Jesus is our advocate with our Father in Heaven. He explains how Jesus paid the price for our sins. The only way for Jesus to be our advocate was and is for him to completely and totally understand us. That means Jesus understands all of our sins, faults, pain suffering, and also all of our good points. An advocate knows everything about his client, the person for whom he is advocating. For Jesus loved the world so very much that he gave his life, and became our advocate, so that we would not perish, but have everlasting life. Martin also brings up the current belief among most Latter-day Saints that Jesus atoned for all worlds, past, present and future. Martin explains, however, that Brigham Young said each world has its own Savior, who is the son of the first parents of that world.
