How do we know that Christ is Lord and Savior?

Answered in 1 source

We affirm Christ as Lord through faith, acknowledging His sovereignty and the accomplishment of salvation through His work.

The certainty of Christ's Lordship arises from Scripture and the work of the Holy Spirit within believers. The sermon stresses that acknowledging Christ requires divine revelation; as Peter confessed Jesus as the Christ, it was revealed to him by the Father (Matthew 16:16-17). This highlights that faith is a grace bestowed upon the believer, enabling them to recognize and submit to Christ's authority. Furthermore, Christ's fulfillment of the covenant and His sacrificial death confirm His role as both Lord and Savior, assuring believers of their salvation based on His completed work, rather than any decision or action they might make.
