How do we know that Christ's work was successful?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's resurrection is the ultimate evidence of His success in accomplishing salvation for His people.

The resurrection of Jesus Christ serves as the definitive proof of His successful work on behalf of sinners. As preacher Larry Criss emphasizes, if Christ had not risen from the dead, 'He would still be in the tomb,' demonstrating failure. However, because He rose, we know that death was defeated and that His sacrificial work on the cross was accepted by God (1 Corinthians 15:14-17). This resurrection is referred to as evidence of His triumph and validates our faith. The fact that Christ is alive provides assurance that His promises are true, and that believers will follow Him in resurrection as well, making it an essential cornerstone of our faith.
