How do we know Jesus took our sins upon himself?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible illustrates that Jesus bore our sins as our substitute, fulfilling prophecies like Isaiah 53:6, where it states that the Lord laid on him the iniquity of us all.

The certainty that Jesus took upon himself the sins of humanity is firmly established in Scripture, particularly in Isaiah 53:6, which states, 'All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.' This demonstrates that Jesus was not merely a martyr; He was the divinely appointed substitute who endured the penalty of sin on behalf of His people. The completeness of His sacrifice addresses the totality of human sinfulness and provides the only acceptable means of reconciliation with God.
