What does God think of those justified by Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God views those justified by Christ as clothed in His righteousness, free from condemnation.

When God justifies a believer, He sees them as having the perfect righteousness of Christ attributed to them. This means that, despite our sinfulness, God accepts us because we are identified in Christ. As Paul writes, 'There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus' (Romans 8:1). Because Christ satisfied the demands of the law through His sacrifice, God no longer holds our sins against us. We stand before Him as righteous, wholly accepted and loved, thus assuring us of our eternal security and relationship with the Father.
