How do we know that Jesus is our covenant head?

The role of Jesus as our covenant head is established through His sacrificial work and representation. According to Ephesians 5:25, Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it, illustrating His commitment as our head. Romans 5 helps us see the contrast between Adam, our first covenant head, and Jesus, the second Adam, whose obedience brings justification to many. This headship means that every believer is seen through the lens of Christ’s work, where we are counted righteous because of Him. Such assurance reflects the unbreakable bond established through His grace.
