What does it mean that Jesus' death is a double cure?

Answered in 1 source

The double cure means that Jesus' death addresses both the guilt of sin and its power over believers.

The concept of Jesus' death as a double cure reflects its comprehensive nature in addressing both the guilt of sin and its dominating power in believers' lives. Through His shed blood, believers are cleansed from guilt and justified before God. The water symbolizes the work of the Holy Spirit, which enables believers to resist sin's power. Thus, not only does the sacrifice of Christ secure forgiveness, but it also brings about transformation through the Spirit, allowing Christians to live victorious lives.
