How do we know that God's justice is always satisfied?
Answered in 1 source
God's justice is satisfied through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, who bore the punishment for the ungodly.
The satisfaction of God's justice is attained through the atoning work of Jesus Christ, as evidenced by Hebrews 12:24, where the blood of Jesus speaks better things than that of Abel. Abel's blood cried out for justice against Cain, highlighting the need for punishment of sin. In contrast, Christ's blood cries out for justification and reconciliation, proclaiming that the justice of God has been fully satisfied through His sacrificial death. Romans 5:6 emphasizes that Christ died for the ungodly, indicating that God's justice was fulfilled in the penalty Christ bore, thus allowing God to justly forgive and redeem those for whom Christ died. This profound truth reassures believers that the depths of God's justice have been met through Christ's sacrifice.
