How do we know the doctrine of Christ's substitution is true?

Answered in 1 source

The doctrine of Christ's substitution is supported by biblical prophecy and the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan through Jesus' death.

The doctrine of Christ's substitution is underpinned by numerous scripture passages that highlight the sacrificial nature of Christ's death. As seen in Isaiah 53:5, 'He was wounded for our transgressions; he was bruised for our iniquities.' This prophesied truth was fulfilled when Jesus, the innocent Lamb of God, suffered and died for guilty sinners. Furthermore, the New Testament emphasizes this theme, particularly in Galatians 3:13, where it states that 'Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.' The consistent biblical narrative of sacrificial atonement throughout both the Old and New Testaments reinforces the truth of Christ's substitutionary sacrifice as central to salvation.
