How do we know that Christ's authority is greater than Satan?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's authority over Satan is demonstrated through His ability to cast out demons instantly and His ultimate victory over evil.

The complete authority of Christ over Satan is vividly displayed in Mark 9:14-29, where Jesus commands an unclean spirit to leave a boy, showcasing His power to triumph over the forces of darkness. When He states, 'I charge you, come out of him, and enter no more into him,' it illustrates His sovereign command, which even the most formidable evil must obey. This event serves not only as a miracle but as a testament to His divine authority, affirming that 'greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world' (1 John 4:4). Therefore, believers can have confidence, knowing that Jesus is able to save to the uttermost those who come to God by Him, reinforcing the promise that nothing can separate us from His love and protection.
