What is the significance of Christ’s sacrifice in relation to God’s respect?
Answered in 1 source
Christ’s sacrifice is significant because it fulfills the requirements of justice, and it is the only act that God respects completely.
In the sermon, it is emphasized that God respects only the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, who became sin for us. The Father’s respect for Christ’s sacrifice demonstrates His justice—He punished sin, even in His beloved Son, to uphold righteousness. Only through Christ can believers be reconciled to God, as His blood has cleansed them from sin (Hebrews 9:22). Therefore, all God's acceptance of believers relies not on their actions but on Christ's perfect obedience and sacrifice, allowing them to stand justified before Him, fully respected in Christ.
