Jesus Defends His People Condemned by Satan ㅡ

 “And the LORD said to Satan, The LORD rebuke you, O Satan; even the LORD that has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?” (Zechariah 3:2)

 The fact that the acknowledged people of God are represented as standing before the Lord in filthy garments should lead to humility and deep searching of heart on the part of all who profess His name.

Those who are indeed purifying their souls by obeying the truth will have a most humble opinion of themselves.

The more closely they view the spotless character of Christ, the stronger will be their desire to be conformed to His image, and the less will they see of purity or holiness in themselves.

But while we should realize our sinful condition, we are to rely upon Christ as our righteousness, our sanctification, and our redemption.

We cannot answer the charges of Satan against us.

Christ alone can make an effectual plea in our behalf.

He is able to silence the accuser with arguments founded not upon our merits, but on His own.
