What does it mean when it says, 'God's law is satisfied'?
Answered in 1 source
'God's law is satisfied' means that the full demands of justice against sin have been met through Christ's sacrificial death.
The phrase 'God's law is satisfied' succinctly encapsulates the doctrine of atonement within Reformed theology. It indicates that Jesus Christ, through His death and resurrection, accomplished the necessary work to meet the law's demands. The law, which reveals sin and declares it worthy of death, has been satisfied because Christ took upon Himself the sin of His people and bore the wrath of God in their stead. Therefore, the law no longer condemns believers; instead, they are viewed as righteous due to Christ's obedience and sacrifice. This principle is foundational for understanding the believer’s secure position in Christ, as expressed in Romans 8:1, 'There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.'
