How do we know the righteousness of Christ is sufficient for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

The righteousness of Christ is sufficient for salvation as it fulfills all of God's law and satisfies His just demands (Romans 8:3-4).

The sufficiency of Christ's righteousness for salvation is a foundational tenet of Reformed theology. It is not merely about imputed righteousness but about the personal righteousness of Jesus Christ that is necessary for our justification. Romans 8:3-4 describes how God sent His Son to fulfill the law on our behalf, providing a righteousness that satisfies His justice. This means our salvation is completely based on Christ's obedience, which reconciles us to God, allowing us to stand justified in His sight. The beauty of the gospel lies in its declaration that this righteousness is a gift received through faith, ensuring that believers can have full assurance of their salvation.
