How do we know Christ's victory over sin is true?

Answered in 5 sources

Christ's victory is assured through His resurrection and the fulfillment of God's promises, which are symbolized in the victory of David over Goliath.

The certainty of Christ's victory over sin is grounded in His resurrection, which confirms the sufficiency of His sacrificial death. In the story of David and Goliath, we see David's confidence rooted in God's power, as he faces the giant. Likewise, Christ faced the ultimate foe, sin and death, and through His resurrection, He triumphed decisively. 1 Corinthians 15:22 affirms that just as in Adam all die, in Christ all are made alive. Therefore, believers can rest assured that His victory is valid and effective for the redemption of His elect, as promised in Scripture.
