How do we know that Christ will build His church?

Answered in 1 source

We know Christ will build His church because He promised to do so, as affirmed in Scripture.

Christ asserts in Matthew 16:18, 'I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.' This is echoed in Isaiah 54:11-12, where God promises to lay precious stones as the foundation of His church. The metaphors of living stones and a holy temple serve to illustrate how God builds His people together. He is the sovereign builder, ensuring that every elect individual is called and fitted into His church as He sees fit.
Scripture References: Matthew 16:18, Isaiah 54:11-12
