How do we know Jesus is the representative man for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is the representative man, perfect and sinless, ordained by God to redeem His people (Mark 3:20-30).

In Mark 3, we see that Jesus, being fully God and fully man, fulfilled the role of a representative man. He did not sin and lived in perfect obedience to God's law, making Him the only suitable candidate to bear the sins of His people as their substitute. As stated in Ephesians 1:4, He was chosen in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless, demonstrating that God's plan for redemption was established even before creation. Thus, His life and sacrifice serve as the basis of our faith in Him for salvation.
