How do we know that the hope we have in Christ is true?

The certainty of our hope in Christ is anchored in God's promise and His unalterable purpose, which is established in eternity. Hebrews 6 reminds us that this hope is not contingent upon our actions or fruits but is assured by the oath of God. This hope is connected to the eternal counsel of God, wherein believers are assured of their salvation through the work of Christ, who is our faithful High Priest, mediating on our behalf. Thus, our faith is not in our merits but in God's immutable character and His covenantal promises.
