How do we know our hope of resurrection is true?

The foundation for our hope of resurrection lies in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:20-22 declares, 'But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead.' This passage makes it clear that Christ’s resurrection is the guarantee of our resurrection. The event of Christ rising from the dead is a historical fact, evidenced by numerous eyewitness accounts, providing assurance to believers of our future resurrection. The hope of eternal life is reinforced throughout Scripture, revealing that Jesus, who is the resurrection and the life, will raise us up on the last day (John 11:25).
