What does the Bible say about what Christ restored?
Answered in 1 source
Christ restored our innocence, fellowship with God, and more through His sacrifice.
The Lord Jesus Christ declares in Psalm 69, 'I restored that which I took not away.' This speaks of the restoration of what was lost due to Adam's fall. Adam originally had innocence and direct fellowship with God. However, through sin, these were lost. In Christ, believers receive not just innocence but the righteousness and holiness of God. This includes a deeper understanding of God’s love and a restoration of peace that Adam could not have known prior to the fall. True restoration hinges on Christ's sacrifice, ensuring believers are clothed in His righteousness and enabled to have fellowship with God that surpasses the original state of innocence.
