What does the Bible say about the double cure for sin?

Answered in 1 source

The double cure refers to salvation from both the guilt and power of sin through Christ's righteousness.

The Bible presents the concept of a double cure in that it not only addresses the guilt of sin but also the power of sin through salvation. As mentioned in the hymn 'Rock of Ages,' we need to be saved from both the guilt which condemns us and the power that enslaves us. Christ's righteousness serves as our justification before God, freeing us from guilt, while regeneration grants us a new heart that enables us to live righteously. Thus, salvation is comprehensive—delivering us from both aspects of sin's dominion over our lives.
