How do we know that Christ is our city of refuge?

Answered in 1 source

Christ fulfills the role of our city of refuge, providing safety from the judgment of the law (Joshua 20:7-8).

Jesus Christ exemplifies our city of refuge as described in Joshua 20, where cities were established for those in need of safety from retribution. Just as these cities offered protection from the avenger of blood, Christ provides refuge from the law's demands and judgment. His sacrifice satisfies God's justice, as He bore the punishment for our sins, and as believers, we can find safety and solace in His atoning work. When we run to Him in faith, we are shielded from condemnation and receive grace and forgiveness.
