What does the Bible say about how man can be justified with God?

The question of how man can be justified before God is central to Scripture. In Job 25, Bildad asks, 'How then can man be justified with God?' This dilemma is echoed throughout the Bible, indicating that man, born of Adam, is inherently dead in sin. Isaiah 64:6 reveals our righteousness as filthy rags, further emphasizing that we cannot attain justification through our works or adherence to the law. The law itself, as mentioned in Romans 3:20, serves to reveal our sinfulness rather than to justify us. It is only through the grace of God and the redemptive work of Jesus Christ that we receive justification. He was made sin for us, satisfying the divine justice of God, enabling us to be declared righteous before Him.
