How do we know Jesus has power over hell and death?

Answered in 1 source

We know Jesus has power over hell and death because He rose from the grave, declaring victory over both (1 Corinthians 15:55-57).

The assurance of Christ's power over hell and death is rooted in His resurrection, which serves as the ultimate triumph over both. In 1 Corinthians 15:55-57, Paul writes, 'O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.' His resurrection confirms that He has conquered sin, death, and hell, establishing Him as the sovereign ruler who can deliver believers from fear and despair. This power is an encouragement to those who trust in Him, as He promises eternal life and a place in heaven for His followers.
