How do we know that God justifies the ungodly?

Answered in 4 sources

We know God justifies the ungodly through Scripture, particularly Romans 4:5, which states that He justifies those without regard for their past actions.

The doctrine that God justifies the ungodly finds its foundation in Romans 4:5, which declares, 'But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.' This demonstrates that justification is granted not based on works or moral standing, but through faith in God's mercy. The character of justification reveals God's nature, distinguishing Him from false deities. Furthermore, throughout the Bible, we observe that God has chosen to demonstrate His grace toward those who do not deserve it, reinforcing the concept of sovereign grace in salvation.
