How do we know God's promises of mercy are true?

Answered in 1 source

God's promises of mercy are true because they are based on His unchanging nature and the completed work of Christ.

The truth of God's promises of mercy rests on His character as a promise-keeping God, who cannot lie. The assurance of mercy is reinforced in scriptures such as Jeremiah 31:34, where God promises, 'I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.' This promise is fulfilled through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, whose sacrifice satisfies God's justice and secures forgiveness for His people. Hence, every believer can approach God with confidence, knowing that His mercy is sure and eternal, evidenced by His unwavering faithfulness and Christ's completed work on the cross.
