How do we know that Christ's sacrifice was for our sins?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's sacrifice was specifically for the sins of His elect, as stated in Galatians 1:4.

Paul explicitly states that Christ 'gave Himself for our sins' in Galatians 1:4, indicating that His sacrifice was purposeful and directed specifically toward the sins of His people. This underscores the concept of limited atonement within sovereign grace theology, which teaches that Christ died for the elect, those chosen by God before the foundation of the world, as affirmed in passages like Ephesians 1:4. Therefore, Christ's death was not a general possibility for all but a definite provision for those He has redeemed.
