How do we know that Jesus' miracles were authentic?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' miracles were validated through the testimony of eyewitness accounts and their fulfillment of Scripture.

The authenticity of Jesus' miracles is affirmed by the multitude of eyewitness accounts that detail the events and their impact on those who witnessed them. For instance, the miracles performed in Jerusalem led to many believing in His name (John 2:23). Furthermore, these miracles fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies regarding the Messiah, who was expected to perform signs and wonders. The collective witness of the prophets, as well as the transformative power of Jesus' miracles, points towards their divine authenticity. Additionally, as believers, we recognize that the ultimate validation of these miracles lies in the Gospel message they reveal: salvation through Jesus Christ, which transcends the miracles themselves. Miracles were never an end in themselves but points that directed individuals to their faith in Christ.
