What does 'It is God that justifieth' mean?

Answered in 1 source

'It is God that justifieth' signifies that God alone has the authority to declare the elect righteous.

The phrase 'It is God that justifieth' (Romans 8:33) underscores God's sovereignty in salvation. This means that no one can bring a charge against the people of God because their justification rests solely in God's hands. This declaration is not affected by human standards or accusations because it is rooted in the righteousness of Christ, who fulfilled the law on our behalf. The assurance derived from this truth encourages believers to rest in the certainty of their salvation.
