How do we know the importance of Christ's humiliation for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Christ’s humiliation is vital because it satisfies God's justice and restores dignity to His law.

The necessity of Christ's humiliation hinges on the requirement for justice in God’s divine government. Since humanity has sinned, the honor of God and the dignity of His law demanded a response that could only be fulfilled by the humiliation of one equal in dignity and holiness—namely, Jesus Christ. He became obedient unto death, reconciling the dishonor caused by sin and restoring holiness to the law. Without this act, there could be no satisfaction for sin, underscoring the importance of His humility as the basis for every believer's salvation.
