What does the Bible say about Christ as our propitiation?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is our propitiation, satisfying God's justice for our sins through His sacrifice.

In Romans 3:25, the Apostle Paul explains that God set forth Christ to be a propitiation through faith in His blood. This means that Christ's sacrificial death appeases God's righteous anger against sin, fulfilling the requirements of justice while demonstrating grace to believers. The concept of propitiation is deeply rooted in the Day of Atonement, where the high priest would offer sacrifices to cover the sins of the people. Christ fulfills this role as both the high priest and the sacrificial lamb, providing reconciliation with God for those who believe in Him.
