How do we know that being Jesus-centered is true?

Answered in 1 source

The witness of believers and scripture confirms that a Jesus-centered faith reflects true Christianity.

Validation of a Jesus-centered life comes from both individual testimonies and scriptural foundations. Personal experiences shared by followers, like the Korean doctor who recognized the church's emphasis on Christ, exemplify how this focus aligns with authentic Christian living. The fruit of a Jesus-centered faith can be seen in transformed lives and a communal dedication to the gospel message as outlined in 1 Corinthians 2:2, where Paul emphasizes preaching Christ crucified as the foundation of his ministry.

Moreover, scripture provides a clear mandate for believers to prioritize Christ above all else. In Matthew 6:33, we are instructed to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, indicating that everything else should flow from a Christ-centered perspective. This leads to a vibrant and active faith where believers seek to embody Christ's teachings in their lives, thus confirming the truth of the doctrine as they witness its impact on themselves and others.
