How does Christ satisfy God's justice for our sins?

Answered in 1 source

Christ satisfies God's justice by being our substitute, bearing the punishment for our sins to uphold both justice and mercy (Romans 3:26).

In fulfilling the demands of God's justice, Christ serves as our substitute, taking upon Himself the punishment that we deserve for our sins. He did not suffer for His own wrongdoings but endured the wrath meant for humanity. Romans 3:26 states that God is just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. By taking our sins upon Himself, Christ demonstrated the depth of God's justice while also allowing for mercy. His sacrifice ensures that justice is upheld, meaning that our sins can be forgiven without compromising God's righteousness.
