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

Answered in 1 source

Christ's resurrection secures our salvation because it validates His victory over sin and the fulfillment of God's promise of eternal life to His elect.

The resurrection of Christ is foundational to the believer's assurance of salvation. According to Romans 4:25, Christ was 'delivered for our offenses, and was raised again for our justification.' His resurrection is the divine confirmation that His sacrifice was acceptable to God, fulfilling all righteousness required by the law. This assures believers that, because He lives, they too will live and have already been raised to new life in their souls. Ephesians 2:4-6 speaks of this regeneration, stating that we are 'quickened together with Christ.' Therefore, the resurrection is not just an event but the pivotal moment that confirms that all who are united with Christ are justified and will ultimately be raised in glory.
