How do we know that Christ's atonement is sufficient for our sin?

Answered in 1 source

Christ’s atonement is sufficient because He is the eternal Son of God, perfect and without sin.

The sufficiency of Christ's atonement stems from who He is—the eternal Son of God, who took on human flesh to die in our place. As stated in 2 Corinthians 5:21, He 'who knew no sin became sin for us.' His unique nature as God-man qualified Him to bear the penalty for sin and secure righteousness for the elect. Any other sacrifice would not have sufficed. Therefore, the depth of His sacrifice corresponds to the height of His divinity, ensuring redemption for those chosen by God.
