How do we know that the promises of Christ are true?

The assurance that Christ's promises are true comes from both scriptural testimony and the experiential reality observed in the lives of believers. In Luke 18:30, Jesus emphasizes that those who forsake earthly ties for His sake will receive much in return. Many throughout church history have testified to experiencing unmatched peace and joy despite earthly losses, affirming that Christ's engagements never fail. By keeping faith in His words, believers find strength in their trials and assurance of God's fulfilling promise of spiritual abundance now and in eternity, validating the truth of His assurances.
