-Bible Dictionary “One who pleads another’s cause. Jesus Christ is the Advocate with the Father, on behalf of the righteous”
1 John 2:1-2 JST- “My little children, these things I write unto you, that ye sin not. But if any man sin and repent, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.”
“[Jesus Christ] really is your Advocate with the Father. He will take your side. He will stand up for you. He will speak on your behalf, every time, as you choose to be more like Him.” (Russell M. Nelson, “Prophets, Leadership, and Divine Law” (worldwide devotional for young adults, Jan. 8, 2017), broadcasts.ChurchofJesusChrist.org)

“I am particularly gratified, and it is of great significance to me, that I may at any moment and in any circumstance approach through prayer the throne of grace, that my Heavenly Father will hear my petition, that my Advocate, him who did no sin, whose blood was shed, will plead my cause. (See D&C 45:3–5.)” (Christofferson, D. Todd, “I Know in Whom I Have Trusted”, Ensign May 1993, 83).
