What does it mean to be justified from all things?

Answered in 1 source

Being justified from all things means being declared righteous and freed from all charges against us (Acts 13:39).

To be justified from all things means to be declared righteous in God's sight through the work of Jesus Christ. In Acts 13:39, we are told that all who believe in Him are justified from everything from which they could not be justified by the law of Moses. This identifies the futility of attempting to achieve righteousness through the law, as it only reveals our sinfulness. Justification is a complete acquittal before God, whereby all charges against us are removed and we are accepted as holy and blameless because of Christ's sacrificial death. This concept is further illustrated in Romans 5:1, which declares that having been justified by faith, we have peace with God.
