How do we know God's grace cleanses sinners?

Answered in 1 source

God's grace cleanses sinners through the atoning sacrifice of Christ, as demonstrated in the ceremonial laws for lepers in Leviticus.

God's grace is manifested in the cleansing of sinners, analogous to the ceremonial provisions for lepers in the Old Testament. In Leviticus 14, the healing of a leper involved the priest performing specific rituals, symbolizing Christ's role as the ultimate High Priest who cleanses from sin. The bloody sacrifice and the sprinkling of water portray the redemptive work of Jesus, whose life and death made reconciliation with God possible. The leper’s restoration process, as enacted by the priest, illustrates that no one is beyond hope when grace is conferred. God's grace operates powerfully, drawing sinners to Himself and effecting their cleansing, emphasizing that it is through divine intervention, not human merit, that salvation is achieved.
