How do we know that Jesus' authority is true?

Answered in 3 sources

We know Jesus' authority is true because He performed miracles, taught with unique authority, and referenced the Father's will, validating His ministry.

The authenticity of Jesus’ authority is evidenced throughout the New Testament by His miraculous works, authoritative teachings, and direct claims of divine mission. For instance, in John 12:49, Jesus states, 'I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.' Such assertions coupled with His power to heal and forgive sins affirm that His authority is legitimate and rooted in divine approval. Furthermore, His death and resurrection serve as the ultimate testament to His authority, confirming Him as the Son of God and securing salvation for believers. Through these actions and assertions, Christians recognize His supreme authority as central to their faith.
