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

Answered in 1 source

The sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice is established through Scripture, affirming that He paid for all sins of the elect.

Scripture provides clear testimony regarding the sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice. When Christ declares 'It is finished' (John 19:30), it signifies that the atonement for the sins of His people has been fully accomplished. As highlighted in Romans 5:8, 'God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.' This shows that His sacrifice was made on our behalf while we were still in rebellion. Furthermore, 1 John 2:2 notes that He is the propitiation not only for our sins but also for the whole world, specifically referring to the elect. Thus, all whom He represents are completely forgiven because of His all-sufficient sacrifice.
