The next and greatest example of the Father's acceptance of Christ's sacrifice happened three days later, the resurrection. Jesus "was raised because of our justification" Rom. 4:25. His work now being FINISHED and ACCEPTED by the Father, He is now sitting at the right hand of God. There is NO more "victimhood" of Jesus Christ. And as believers, we are in Christ. We are partakers of His death, burial and resurrection. We are no longer "victims" of sin and death.

Romans 8:31-39 31What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? 33Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised— who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.

35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36As it is written,

"For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."

37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
