How do we know the promise of salvation is true?

Answered in 8 sources

We know the promise of salvation is true because it is declared by the One who is sovereign and faithful, Christ Himself, who said, 'It is done.'

The certainty of salvation is grounded in the authority of Christ who declared, 'It is done' (Revelation 21:6). This declaration affirms that all God purposed in eternity has been accomplished in Christ's atoning work. He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, which ensures that His promises are sure and steadfast. The faithfulness of God in His covenants, evidenced in Scriptures like Hebrews 10:14, demonstrates that salvation is not based on human efforts or merit but solely on Christ's righteousness. The assurance comes from the infallibility of the One who has the power to fulfill His promises—therefore, we can confidently trust in the salvation offered through Him.
