How do we know God's justice is satisfied through Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

God's justice is satisfied through the sacrificial death of Christ, who bore the sins of His people, fulfilling the demands of divine justice.

The concept of God's justice being satisfied through Christ is central to Reformed theology. In the message, it is emphasized that the Lord declared He will by no means clear the guilty, which points to the seriousness of sin and the imperative for justice. In Christ's death, He bore the sins of the elect, effectively bearing the punishment that God's justice demands. This act not only fulfilled the laws of divine justice but also demonstrated God's willingness to provide perfect righteousness through His Son. The sacrifice of Christ thus becomes the cornerstone of salvation, where God's justice is harmonized with His mercy, allowing believers to receive forgiveness and freedom from sin's condemnation.
