How do we know that Jesus is truly the Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

We know Jesus is the Christ through divine revelation as emphasized in Matthew 16:17, confirming that faith comes from God.

The recognition of Jesus as the Christ is affirmed by divine revelation. In Matthew 16:17, Jesus tells Peter, 'Flesh and blood have not revealed this to you, but my Father which is in heaven.' This underscores the idea that true faith is a gift from God, borne out of His sovereign choice to reveal truth to the hearts of His elect. Furthermore, the miracles, prophecies, and teachings of Jesus validate His identity as the Messiah. The scriptures testify to His unique fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, reinforcing our assurance in His rightful place as our Savior.
