How do we know God's promises are true for the church?

Answered in 1 source

God's promises are true as they are fulfilled in Christ and assured in Scripture.

The certainty of God's promises stems from His faithfulness throughout history, as revealed in Scripture. In Zechariah 4, the encouragement provided was directly tied to the return of Israel and the rebuilding of the temple, symbolizing God's ongoing commitment to His people. Jesus, as the mediator of the new covenant, fulfills these promises by ensuring that His church will prevail 'not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit' (Zechariah 4:6). This gives us confidence that God's plans and promises for the church will be completed, as highlighted in Romans 8:28-30.
