How do we know Jesus is Lord?

Answered in 16 sources

We know Jesus is Lord through the revelation of God in Scripture, particularly in Philippians 2, where His obedience unto death is exalted by God.

The Lordship of Jesus Christ is established in the Scriptures, most notably in Philippians 2:5-11, where we see that His humble obedience to the point of death led to His exaltation by God. This passage highlights that God has given Him a name above all names, and that at His name every knee shall bow. Jesus is not just a respected figure; He is acknowledged as the supreme sovereign over all creation. His deeds and authority, as evidenced throughout the Gospels, confirm His claim to lordship, and this truth is reaffirmed by the faith of believers who recognize Him as Lord over their lives.
