How do we know Christ is a sure foundation?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is a sure foundation because He has been tested and proved through His life, fulfilling the law perfectly without sin.

In Isaiah 28:16, the term 'tried stone' emphasizes that Christ has been tested and found to be a reliable foundation for salvation. He faced temptation and was tried in every sense, yet He did not fail. This reliability is further underscored in 1 Corinthians 3:11, which states that no other foundation can be laid except that which is Christ. His fulfillment of the law, as seen in Isaiah 42:1, assures us that He is the perfect mediator and Savior. Thus, when we rest upon Him for our salvation, we are anchored in a foundation that will never fail.
