How do we know Jesus conquered sin and death?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus conquered sin and death through His death on the cross and His resurrection, demonstrating that He has the authority over all captors (Hebrews 2:14).

The victory of Christ over sin and death is central to the Gospel message. In Hebrews 2:14, it states that Jesus partook of flesh and blood so that through death He might destroy the one who has the power of death, the devil. By dying in our place, He bore the weight of our sins and faced divine wrath without any personal guilt. His resurrection is the ultimate proof of His authority over death; as 1 Corinthians 15:55 proclaims, 'O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?' Through His resurrection, He validated His claims and the sufficiency of His atonement, bringing to light the promise of eternal life for all who believe. This triumph is foundational to the faith of Christians, affirming that through Christ, death has been defeated forever.
