How do we know the authority of Jesus in healing?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' authority in healing is evidenced by His immediate and miraculous healings, as shown in the Gospels.

The authority of Jesus is clearly established through His miraculous acts, including the healing of the leper in Mark 1. When Jesus says, 'I will; be thou clean,' the healing occurs instantaneously, underscoring His divine authority over illness. This is not merely a physical restoration; it symbolizes a deeper spiritual cleansing that only He can provide. The Gospels repeatedly affirm that Jesus' words carry power and transformation, which validates His claims about His identity as the Son of God and the expected Messiah.
