How do we know that Christ binds Satan?

Answered in 1 source

The binding of Satan by Christ is evidenced through His victory over sin and death, as well as His sovereign authority to control Satan's influence.

The assertion that Christ binds Satan stems from His atoning work and the proclamation of Scripture. In Matthew 12:29, Jesus indicates that He must first bind the strong man before plundering his house. This binding commenced during His earthly ministry when He faced temptation and emerged victorious, thus establishing His authority over demonic forces. Throughout the New Testament, especially in Revelation 20, we find profound affirmations that this binding is ongoing throughout the gospel age, assuring believers that Satan's power is curtailed and that Christ governs supreme.
