What does it mean that God sees us through Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God sees us through Christ, which means He views us as righteous because of Jesus' sacrifice (2 Corinthians 5:21).

When we say that God sees us through Christ, we affirm that our standing before God is not based on our merit but on Christ’s righteousness. 2 Corinthians 5:21 declares, 'For our sake, He made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.' This profound truth reassures believers that, despite our sinful nature, God regards us as righteous and accepted in Christ. It is a testament to God’s grace that He does not count our sins against us but instead sees us clothed in the perfect righteousness of His Son. This understanding fosters a deeper appreciation for God’s love and mercy, encouraging believers to live in light of their new identity in Christ.
