God's promises are fulfilled through the historical events of redemption as shown in Scriptures, particularly through the line of the patriarchs leading to Jesus Christ.
The certainty of God's promises being fulfilled is seen throughout Scripture, particularly in how the lineage of the patriarchs led to the coming of Christ. The faith displayed by figures such as Abraham, Isaac, and Joseph was rooted in their belief that God would fulfill His word. Despite not living to see the complete realization of these promises, they trusted God's plan. For instance, Abraham was assured that his descendants would be numerous and that through them, a redeemer would arise (Genesis 12:1-3). Their faith exemplify the truth that God's promises, although sometimes delayed or differently realized than hoped, are always fulfilled in accordance with His sovereign will. This culminates in the ultimate promise of redemption through Jesus Christ, the surety of which is confirmed through the resurrection.
