How do we know Christ's authority is true?

Answered in 2 sources

We know Christ's authority is true through the testimony of Scripture, which reveals His exaltation by God and His dominion over all creation (Philippians 2:9-11).

The truth of Christ's authority is affirmed in Scripture, particularly in passages that declare His exaltation and universal lordship. For example, Philippians 2:9-11 states that God has highly exalted Christ and given Him a name above every name, indicating that every knee should bow to Him. Additionally, His authority is demonstrated through His ability to perform miracles, His triumph over death, and His resurrection, evidencing His divine power and sovereignty. The reality of His headship is also supported by His active role in the lives of believers, where His sovereign grace leads, guides, and transforms them. Therefore, the convergence of scriptural testimony and experiential conviction within the church confirms the veracity of Christ's authority.
