How is God's justice satisfied through Christ's sacrifice?

Answered in 1 source

God's justice is satisfied through Christ's sacrifice as He bore the full penalty of sin on behalf of believers.

God’s justice is a foundational aspect of His character that requires that sin be punished. In Romans 3:25-26, we see that Christ, through His sacrificial death, is the propitiation for our sins, satisfying God’s wrath. This means that Christ took upon Himself the punishment that was due to us, thus allowing God to remain just while justifying the sinner. As stated in Isaiah 53:10, 'Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief.' Christ’s sacrifice fulfills the law's demands completely, ensuring that all who believe in Him are not only forgiven but also seen as righteous before God because of Christ’s imputed righteousness.
