How do we know that God's promises to David are fulfilled in Christ?

The fulfillment of God's promises to David is clearly expressed in the New Testament, particularly in the Book of Acts. Peter, during his sermon on Pentecost, explicitly links David's prophecies regarding the resurrection to Christ. As God's chosen King, Jesus is the one raised from the dead and seated on the throne, fulfilling the covenant established with David. The assurance that God's promises are 'Yes' and 'Amen' in Christ means that all of David's hopes and the blessings of the Davidic covenant culminate in Jesus, who bridges the gap between the temporal and eternal promises of God. Every promise and prophecy concerning David leads us to the ultimate realization of God's redemptive work in Christ.
