Why is it important to recognize the works of Jesus?
Answered in 1 source
Recognizing the works of Jesus affirms His identity as the Messiah and brings hope to believers.
Jesus' works as recorded in the Gospels, such as the healing of the blind and raising of the dead, serve as affirmations of His divine nature and mission as the promised Messiah. In Matthew 11:4-5, Jesus instructs John's disciples to report back to him these miraculous acts, indicating that they are manifestations of His messianic credentials. These miracles were not merely physical; they carried deep spiritual significance, illustrating Christ's power to save, heal, and restore. Acknowledging these works is essential for believers because it reinforces their faith and understanding of who Jesus is as the fulfillment of God's promises.
