How do we know God's promises for our children are true?
Answered in 1 source
God's promises are true because He is immutable and faithful, demonstrating His love and commitment through His Word.
God's promises are assured by His character as a faithful and unchanging God. In Jeremiah 31:3, we read, 'I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.' This shows that God's love is not transient but eternal and unwavering. Additionally, when He promises to bring restoration and hope for future generations, as seen in Jeremiah 31:17, we can trust that such declarations are rooted in His divine nature. Throughout Scripture, God proves His faithfulness by fulfilling His covenant promises, which gives us confidence that He will likewise fulfill His promise concerning the salvation of our children.
