In the first verse of chapter 2, John reminds Christians that if we do stumble and sin, we have an advocate.
Jesus Christ himself will intercede for us when we face judgment. He is a foil to Satan. This is no contest, and all believers can feel confident that we will be defended successfully.
Obviously this does not mean I shoud go out and sin on purpose, but it takes off pressure to be perfect knowing that Jesus will be my defense attorney as I enter heaven.
