How do we know that God's promises are trustworthy?

Answered in 19 sources

God's promises are trustworthy because they are grounded in His faithfulness, demonstrated through His actions and the faith experienced by individuals like Abraham and Sarah.

We can trust God's promises because they are rooted in His unchanging nature and faithfulness. Hebrews 11 recounts the faith of Abraham and Sarah, who believed in God’s promise despite circumstances that seemed impossible. Their trust was not based on their own capacity to fulfill the promise but on their recognition of God’s power and faithfulness. The history of God's dealings with His people shows that He has consistently fulfilled His word, which assures us of the reliability of His promises.
