How do we know Christ's sacrifice satisfies God's justice?

Answered in 1 source

Christ’s resurrection and exaltation confirm that His sacrifice was accepted by God, satisfying divine justice for our sins.

The assurance that Christ's sacrifice satisfies God's justice is rooted in the entirety of His redemptive work, culminating in His resurrection. When Jesus declared 'It is finished' on the cross, His death was not just a mere act of love but a fulfilling of the requirements of God's justice for all those who believe. The resurrection serves as the ultimate declaration from God the Father that He accepted Christ's sacrifice in our place. His ascending to sit at the Father’s right hand is further evidence of divine approval, assuring us that our sins have been completely atoned for and that we, too, can be accepted based on the merit of Christ’s work alone.
