How do we know that Jesus has the authority to cast out demons?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus demonstrated His authority to cast out demons through His actions in the Gospels, particularly in Mark 5.

In the Gospel of Mark, specifically in Mark 5, Jesus encounters a man possessed by a legion of demons. The fact that these demons recognize Jesus and plead for permission not to be cast out, reveals His divine authority over them. His ability to command them to leave the man and enter into swine further confirms this authority. The confrontation between Christ and the evil spirits serves to illustrate His power over all evil and His role in establishing His kingdom against all opposition. We see that even the most powerful entities in the spiritual realm must submit to the will of God, affirming that Jesus is God incarnate with complete sovereignty over all creation.
