This episode is the second in our “What I Couldn’t Say” series of special episodes. WICS episodes focus on particular studies of Scripture by pastors and leaders in the church as they prepare for sermons or lectures. Deacon Mark dusts off an old essay from his days in seminary. In the essay, he explores 1 John 2:1-2 including the Greek word παράκλητος (parakletos) literally meaning a legal advocate; an intercessor; a helper generally.
