How do we know God justifies the ungodly?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible assures us that God justifies sinners through faith in Christ, who fulfilled the law on our behalf.

The doctrine of justification is foundational to the Christian faith, emphasizing that God declares the ungodly righteous based on their faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 4:5 tells us that to the one who does not work but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness. This establishes that our justification is not based on our works but entirely on the finished work of Christ, who, as Romans 3:26 states, is both just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Therefore, believing in Christ is the key to understanding how God can remain just while justifying us, as our sins were laid on Him in His atoning sacrifice.
