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

Answered in 9 sources

Christ's atonement is sufficient for our sins as He bore the punishment for the elect, fully satisfying God's justice and providing eternal redemption.

The sufficiency of Christ's atonement is firmly rooted in the concept of substitutionary atonement, as expressed in Isaiah 53:5, which states that He was wounded for our transgressions. The belief that Christ paid the penalty for sin implies that He satisfied the demands of God's justice once and for all (Hebrews 10:12). Furthermore, in 1 John 2:2, we see that Jesus is the propitiation for our sins, not only for ours but for those of the whole world of His elect. Therefore, His sacrifice is more than adequate to cover the sins of the redeemed, affirming that those for whom He died will never face condemnation (Romans 8:1).
