How do we know that believers are justified despite their sin?
Answered in 1 source
Believers are justified through faith in Christ, whose sacrifice fully atoned for their sins.
The doctrine of justification is essential to understanding the relationship between God and His people. Romans 8:33-34 emphasizes that it is God who justifies; therefore, no one can bring a charge against God’s elect. This justification is based on the sufficiency of Christ's atoning sacrifice, which has purged sin and satisfied divine justice. As believers, we are covered by the righteousness of Christ, allowing us to stand before God without condemnation. The entire foundation of our faith relies on this truth, which assures us that God sees no sin in us because it has all been perfectly dealt with in Christ.
