How does God put away sin according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

God puts away sin by imputing it to Jesus Christ, satisfying His justice through Christ's sacrifice.

The Bible teaches that God removes the sin of believers by imputing their iniquities to Jesus Christ, as demonstrated in Psalm 32:1-2, which speaks of the blessedness of one whose sin is not imputed to them. This imputation means that Christ bore the consequences of sin on the Cross, satisfying God's holy justice once and for all. As a result of this divine exchange, believers receive Christ's righteousness, ensuring that their sins are completely removed and cannot be found again. This truth is pivotal for understanding the assurance of salvation and the unconditional love of God for His people.
