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

Answered in 1 source

Jesus being the Christ is revealed through divine revelation, as affirmed in Matthew 16 when Peter confesses Him as such.

In Matthew 16:15-17, Jesus asks His disciples who they believe He is, and Peter declares, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' Jesus responds, acknowledging that this truth was not revealed by flesh and blood, but by His Father in heaven. This emphasizes that understanding Jesus as the Messiah requires divine revelation rather than human intellect. The belief in Christ’s identity is foundational to Christian faith, as it recognizes His divine nature and authority to save.
