How do we know the gospel message is true?

Answered in 12 sources

The truth of the gospel is confirmed through the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, the eyewitness accounts of Jesus' resurrection, and the transformative work of the Holy Spirit.

The veracity of the gospel message is supported by various evidences, including the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies concerning the Messiah, as Peter cites in Acts 2. This includes references to the coming of the Spirit, the death and resurrection of Christ, and their implications for salvation. Furthermore, the accounts of the apostles who witnessed the risen Christ serve as powerful testimonies to the truth of the gospel. The transformative work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers further attests to the gospel's power to change hearts and lives, as evidenced by the 3,000 conversions in Acts 2, marking a pivotal moment in the early church.
