How do we know that Christ is the true Messiah?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's miracles and fulfillment of prophecy, as stated in Matthew 11:5, affirm His identity as the true Messiah.

We know that Christ is the true Messiah through the miracles He performed and the prophecies He fulfilled. In Matthew 11:5, Jesus tells John the Baptist's disciples to report that 'the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.' These acts not only demonstrate His divine authority but also confirm the prophecies that were indicative of the Messiah's coming. By providing tangible evidence of His power and ministry, Jesus authenticates His claim as the Savior who was promised in the Scriptures. Acceptance of Christ as the Messiah requires faith that trusts in these evidences and the grace He extends through His redemptive work.
