How do we know that Christ died for our sins?

Answered in 12 sources

We know Christ died for our sins through the assurance given in Scripture, particularly Romans 8:31-34, which identifies the elect for whom He laid down His life.

The assurance of Christ's sacrificial death for our sins is grounded in the teachings of Scripture. Romans 8:31-34 highlights that 'if God be for us, who can be against us?' This indicates that Christ's death was specific to the elect, those chosen by God before the foundation of the world. The reality that Christ died for the ungodly, for those who see themselves as sinners in need of salvation, reassures believers that His sacrifice was fully effective for their redemption. It is crucial to understand that Christ's death was not in vain or subject to human conditions; it was with the purpose of saving His people completely.
