How do we know that Jesus is Lord?

Answered in 11 sources

The confession of faith made by Elisabeth, calling Mary the mother of her Lord, signifies the recognition of Christ's divine status.

The recognition of Jesus as Lord is foundational to Christian faith, affirming His divine authority and identity. Elisabeth's declaration in Luke 1:43, 'And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?' is a significant acknowledgment of Jesus’ lordship even before His birth. This confession aligns with the belief that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and the Savior of the world. Philippians 2:9-11 further affirms this truth, stating that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Therefore, this acknowledgment is not only an expression of faith but also an essential truth recognized throughout Scripture and affirmed by believers.
