How do we know Christ is a true Comforter?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is seen as a true Comforter because He experienced human sorrow and offers genuine sympathy and help to the weary.

We know Christ is the true Comforter because He intimately understands our suffering. Hebrews 4:15 confirms that He was tempted and tried in all ways, just as we are. This deep empathy informs His capacity to comfort us. We can approach Him with confidence, knowing that He is touched by our infirmities and ready to offer us consolation. His ministry on earth was marked by acts of compassion towards the brokenhearted, and this same compassion persists as He intercedes for us in heaven.
