How do we know God's promises about Christ's return are true?

The assurance of Christ's return is founded on God's faithfulness as expressed throughout Scripture. In John 14:1-3, Christ Himself reassures believers of His return, stating, 'I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.' This promise is bolstered by His previous works, including His death and resurrection. The believer's confidence rests not on their own understanding of time but on God's unchanging nature and the truth found in His Word. Additionally, the scriptures warn of scoffers in the last days, reminding us to hold tight to our hope while we await fulfillment of His promises.
