How do we know that Christ’s sacrifice covers our unknown sins?

Answered in 1 source

Christ’s sacrifice is the definitive atonement for all sin, including unknown sins, as affirmed in scripture.

The doctrine of our Lord's atoning sacrifice enables us to understand that all sin, recognized and unrecognized, falls under the purview of His redemptive work. Scripture clearly states that Christ was made sin for us, encompassing all sins — even those we are not aware of. Leviticus 4 illustrates the necessity of the sin offering for those who confess their sinfulness, regardless of their ability to identify specific sins. This concept is reinforced in the New Testament, indicating that Jesus' death and resurrection provides covering for all, ensuring our justification before God and guaranteeing our inclusion in His grace and mercy.
