How do we know that the teachings of Christ are true?
Answered in 2 sources
The teachings of Christ are confirmed through the eyewitness accounts of His disciples and the power of faith granted to believers.
The truth of Christ's teachings is supported by the eyewitness testimony of those who knew Him personally and observed His ministry. In 2 Peter 1:16, Peter affirms that they did not follow 'cunningly devised fables' but were 'eyewitnesses of His majesty.' This shows the legitimacy of their accounts and the truth of what they proclaimed. Furthermore, believers today are enabled by faith to accept these teachings not merely as historical facts but as divinely inspired revelations that carry the authority of Christ Himself. The fullness of God's revelation through His Son allows us to resonate with the truths imparted, reinforcing their authenticity in our lives.
