What does it mean that the foundation of God's gospel stands sure?

Answered in 1 source

The foundation of God’s gospel is unwavering, offering salvation based on the righteousness of Christ rather than human effort.

The foundation of God's gospel, as stated in scripture, remains unchangeable despite the passage of time and the challenges it faces. For over two thousand years, the essence of the gospel has endured various attacks, yet it stands resilient and true. This foundation is rooted in the person and work of Jesus Christ, whose sacrifice provides a certain hope for sinners. The believers’ assurance comes not from their actions but from the efficacy of Christ’s atonement, as reinforced in 1 John 1:7, emphasizing that His blood cleanses from all sin, indicating that salvation is entirely of the Lord, reflecting the core of Reformed theology.
