Why is the concept of Christ's obedience important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's obedience is crucial for Christians as it guarantees our redemption and the fulfillment of God's law on our behalf.

The obedience of Christ is foundational for believers because it demonstrates God's love and satisfaction with the sacrifice of His Son for our sins. As highlighted in John 10:17-18, the Father's love for the Son is intricately linked to His willingness to lay down His life, which in turn secures our forgiveness and restoration. For Christians, this means that because of Christ's perfect obedience, no charge can be laid against God's elect, fulfilling the law’s demands entirely and allowing us to stand justified before God.
