How do we know Jesus Christ is the Son of God?

Answered in 13 sources

Jesus Christ is affirmed as the Son of God through the witness of Scripture, the teachings of the prophets, and the testimony of His apostles.

The assertion that Jesus Christ is the Son of God is foundational to the Christian faith and is supported by numerous witnesses throughout Scripture. In 1 John 5:7-8, we see a divine testimony—the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit all bear witness to this truth. The prophets of the Old Testament, such as Isaiah, provided a foreshadowing of Christ’s coming and His divine sonship. Furthermore, the apostles were chosen by God to bear witness to Jesus' life, death, and resurrection (Acts 10:39). Their firsthand accounts, combined with the prophetic declarations from the Scriptures, form a robust foundation for the belief that Jesus is indeed the Son of God.
