How do we know Jesus is the firstborn from the dead?

The title 'firstborn from the dead' signifies that Jesus is the preeminent one who has overcome death, as mentioned in Colossians 1:18. Unlike the individuals He raised, who eventually died again, Jesus defeated death permanently through His resurrection. This act not only assures us of His power over death but also provides believers with the hope of eternal life. Paul reveals this glorious truth further in 1 Corinthians 15:20, asserting that Christ's resurrection is the first fruits of those who have died, guaranteeing the future resurrection of His people.
