How do we know that Jesus is our surety as the Lamb of God?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus acts as our surety by satisfying divine justice and bearing the marks of our redemption.

Scripture affirms that Jesus, as the Lamb of God, serves as our surety by taking upon Himself the penalty for our sins, as accentuated in passages like Isaiah 53:7 which speaks of Him being led to the slaughter. His role fulfills both the requirements of justice and love, as He offers Himself willingly to redeem humanity. This assurance is further solidified in His resurrection and exaltation, where He is depicted in Revelation as a Lamb in the midst of the throne, continuing His work on behalf of His people. Therefore, the evidence of His loving sacrifice and ongoing intercession confirms His role as our surety.
