How do we know Christ's identity is true and divine?
Answered in 1 source
Christ's claims about His divine origin and mission are supported by Scripture, notably His statement that He was sent by the Father and was present before creation.
The identity of Christ is affirmed through His own declarations and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. In John 7, He asserts His divine origin by stating, 'I am from Him, and He has sent me.' This declaration aligns with the prophecies concerning the Messiah's divine nature and pre-existence. Additionally, Matthew 11:27 illustrates the unique relationship between the Father and the Son, where no one knows the Father except through the Son. Jesus serves as a living testament to His divine identity as He fulfills God's promises and reveals the Father's will.
