How do we know the promise of the new heavens and the new earth is true?

Answered in 1 source

The promise is affirmed in Scripture and secured by the resurrection of Christ, who is the firstborn from the dead and the assurance of new creation for His followers (Revelation 21:5).

The truth of the promise regarding the new heavens and the new earth is grounded in the authority of Scripture and the work of Jesus Christ. Revelation 21:5 emphasizes that God declares, 'Behold, I make all things new,' highlighting His active role in creation. Additionally, the resurrection of Christ serves as the cornerstone for this promise, as He is the firstborn from the dead and the guarantee that believers will also be raised to new life. This is a fulfillment of God's eternal purpose in Christ, assuring His people that the new creation awaits them.
