How do we know Christ's work is complete?

Answered in 3 sources

We know Christ's work is complete because He declared it finished on the cross (John 19:30), affirming that His sacrifice was sufficient for the redemption of believers.

The completion of Christ’s work is central to the Christian faith, as highlighted in John 19:30, where Jesus declares, 'It is finished.' This proclamation signifies that all necessary atonement for sin has been made, fulfilling the Law and the Prophets. Scripture emphasizes that Christ's death satisfied the justice of God while providing righteousness for the believer. The assurance of His completed work is also reflected in His resurrection, which serves as the confirmation and guarantee of our future hope in Him. Understanding that Christ has fully accomplished this work frees us from the burden of attempting to earn salvation through our efforts, reaffirming the historic Reformed view of grace alone leading to faith.
