How do we know that believers are free from sin and death?

Answered in 1 source

Believers are freed from sin and death through the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

The assurance that believers are free from sin and death rests in the truth that the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has liberated us. Romans 8:2 states, 'For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.' This encapsulates the essence of the gospel - that through faith in Jesus, we receive forgiveness and are justified before God. It signifies that believers, once under condemnation due to Adam’s sin and their own, are now declared not guilty because Christ took their sins upon Himself. The new life given to believers manifests a transformation where they can now live in obedience to God’s will.
