How do we know that Jesus Christ is the true prophet, priest, and king?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is affirmed as the true prophet, priest, and king through His unique sacrifice and divine authority.

The sermon emphasizes that no man has ever held the offices of prophet, priest, and king except for Jesus Christ. This is evidenced through the figure of Melchizedek, who is a type of Christ as a king-priest. The significance lies in Jesus being the only one who offers a perfect sacrifice and has eternal authority in these roles. Hebrews underscores this by stating that Jesus holds the priesthood forever after the order of Melchizedek, highlighting His unique and sovereign position to mediate and represent His people before God, reinforcing the central tenet of His divine kingship and priestly sacrifice.
