How do we know Jesus is the peace of God?

The peace of God is embodied in Jesus Christ, who accomplished reconciliation between man and God through His death on the cross. Colossians 1:20-21 asserts that peace is made through the blood of His cross, demonstrating that true peace comes at the cost of judgment against sin. This peace is not just an absence of conflict but is rooted in a restored relationship with God, making Jesus our peace (Ephesians 2:14-15). To know Jesus is to understand that it is through His work, not our own efforts, that we receive this peace, affirming the sovereign grace of God in salvation.
