How do we know Christ can cleanse us from our sins?

Answered in 1 source

Christ cleanses us from sin through His sacrificial atonement, fulfilling all that God requires.

The cleansing of lepers in the Old Testament laid a foundation for understanding how Christ cleanses sinners. In Leviticus 14, the priest had to come to the leper, symbolizing Christ coming to us. The process involved sacrifices, specifically the killing of one bird representing atonement, while the other bird served as a sign of freedom. This points directly to Christ; He satisfies God's requirements for sin through His death and resurrection, effectively cleanses sinners, and provides all we need for salvation. Scripture affirms that we cannot approach God on our own merit; rather, we rely entirely on the sufficiency of Christ's work.
