How do we know Christ is not the minister of sin?

Answered in 2 sources

According to Galatians 2:17, Christ cannot be the minister of sin because He is the Savior who came to redeem sinners, not promote sin.

Paul addresses a common misconception by stating, 'Is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid!' (Galatians 2:17). This assertion affirms that Christ does not promote sin, but rather He is the remedy for sin. When we recognize our inability to justify ourselves through the law, we understand that Christ’s role is to save and not to condone sin. The accusation against Him diminishes the truth of His redemptive work, which is to liberate us from sin's bondage rather than encourage it.
