How do we know God is propitious towards sinners?

Propitiation refers to God’s provision for reconciliation through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. In scripture, specifically in Romans 3:25, we see that God set forth Christ to be a propitiation for our sins, demonstrating that He Himself took the initiative to reconcile sinners to Himself. This act ensures that divine justice is satisfied without compromising His holiness while allowing Him to extend mercy toward sinners. It is essential to understand that it is God who propitiates Himself, rather than sinners attempting to earn favor through their deeds. Through the blood of Christ, our sins are removed, and God’s mercy is made manifest.
