How do we know Jesus' promise of rest is true?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus' promise of rest is true because He has the authority to offer it and fulfills the requirements of salvation as the God-man.

The assurance of Jesus' promise of rest stems from His divine authority and His nature as the God-man. In Matthew 11:27, Jesus states that all things are delivered to Him by the Father, indicating His sovereign power over all creation. This foundational truth confirms that He is able to grant rest to those who come to Him. Furthermore, his actions—healing the sick, raising the dead, and offering the Gospel to the poor—illustrate His commitment to fulfilling His promises. When we approach Him in faith, we can trust that He will provide true rest for our weary souls, as He has both the desire and capability to do so.
