How do we know that Christ's resurrection ensures our eternal life?

Answered in 1 source

Romans 6:5 asserts that because Christ was raised, believers will also be resurrected to eternal life.

The declaration in John 14:19, 'Because I live, you shall live also,' is a profound assertion that the resurrection of Christ has direct implications for the believer's eternal life. The Apostle Paul elaborates on this in Romans 6:5, where he explains that our union with Christ in His death also guarantees our union in His resurrection. This establishes that believers can have assurance of eternal life because the risen Christ is the source of that life. Our spiritual vitality is intricately tied to His existence; as He lives eternally, so too will those who trust in Him for salvation. This shared life is not just a future hope but a present reality, as believers walk in newness of life right now.
