God's justice is satisfied through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, who bore the penalty for the sins of the elect.
According to Reformed theology, God's justice demands that sin be punished. This was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who suffered as a substitute for sinners, thereby satisfying the demands of God's justice. Romans 3:25-26 affirms that God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement through the shedding of His blood, demonstrating His righteousness and the satisfaction of justice. The resurrection of Christ ensures that God's justice was indeed met, providing assurance of justification for those who believe.
