The promise of the gospel is grounded in God's faithfulness, as He has shown through Scripture and history that He will fulfill His promises to His people.
The certainty of the promise in the gospel is rooted in the character of God, who is faithful and cannot lie (Hebrews 6:13-14). Throughout Scripture, we see the repeated affirmation that God's promises are unchangeable and secured through His sovereign will. The fulfillment of the gospel hinges on Christ, who is both the promised Seed and the means through which all blessings flow. The reality of God's promise, as expressed through the gospel, assures believers that their salvation and hope are not based on human effort, but on the unbreakable covenant established by God Himself.
