How do we know Jesus Christ is the promised Messiah?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus Christ fulfills Old Testament prophecies and declares His mission in Scripture, confirming His identity as the promised Messiah (Luke 4:21).

The identity of Jesus Christ as the promised Messiah is substantiated through His fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and His own declarations. In Luke 4:21, Jesus reads from Isaiah 61 and proclaims that this scripture is fulfilled in their hearing, asserting His role as the anointed one sent from God. Throughout His life and ministry, He demonstrated divine authority and power, performing miracles and preaching the good news of salvation. His unique birth, life, death, and resurrection all align with the prophetic expectations of the Messiah. Furthermore, the testimony of the apostles and the writings of early Christians affirm that Jesus is indeed the Christ, fulfilling the role of both Savior and King as prophesied in the Scriptures.
