What assurance do we have in Christ regarding our justification?
Answered in 1 source
In Christ, we are assured of our justification because He fulfilled the law and bore our sins, satisfying God's justice.
The assurance of our justification in Christ rests on His perfect fulfillment of the law and His vicarious suffering for our sins. Through Christ's atoning work, we are declared righteous before God. As Paul states, 'He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him' (2 Corinthians 5:21). This denotes that Christ, taking upon Himself the condemnation we deserve, satisfies the justice of God, allowing us to be justified by faith apart from works of the law. Our confidence in this justification rests not on our merit but on the sufficiency of Christ's work, which is perfect and complete.
