We know Christ's redemption is true through His revelation, the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, and His sacrificial death and resurrection.
The truth of Christ's redemption is anchored in His identity as the Son of God and His mission on earth. The New Testament affirms that He came not merely to prescribe methods of salvation but to actively redeem those given to Him in the covenant of redemption. His earthly ministry is characterized by fulfilling the prophecies of the Old Testament, demonstrating that God's plan was in motion long before His birth. Coupled with His sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection, the truth of His redemptive work is substantiated and stands as the cornerstone of Christian faith.
