How do we know Jesus is the true image of God?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is confirmed as the true image of God through His perfect reflection of God's character and nature.

We know Jesus is the true image of God because He is described in Scripture as the exact representation of God's being. Hebrews 1:3 states that He is the express image of His person, indicating that to see Jesus is to see the Father. This biblical understanding is reinforced by passages where Jesus asserts His identity, such as when He replied to Thomas, 'If you've seen me, you've seen the Father' (John 14:9). This essential doctrine highlights that Jesus, while fully God, also made God known to us through His life, teachings, and sacrificial death.
