How do we know Christ's death atones for our sins?

Answered in 2 sources

Christ's death atones for our sins because of His divine nature and the sufficiency of His sacrifice (Isaiah 53:5).

The atoning power of Christ's death is rooted in His unique nature as both fully God and fully man. His divinity ensures that His sacrifice holds infinite value, sufficient to cover the sins of countless individuals throughout history (Isaiah 53:5). The Scriptures teach that believers are justified freely by God's grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (Romans 3:24). This means that the efficacy of Christ's atonement is not contingent upon our actions or merits but is grounded solely in who He is and what He has accomplished. Therefore, confidence in the sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice leads to assurance of our salvation.
