How can I know if I have the Son?

Answered in 1 source

You can know you have the Son if your faith relies completely on Him for salvation and if He is all you have (1 John 5:12).

To know if you have the Son, consider whether He is all you truly possess for your salvation. 1 John 5:12 draws a clear distinction: he that has the Son has life, while he who does not have the Son does not possess life. This understanding is not about having certain experiences or emotions but rather about the complete reliance on Christ for your standing before God. When you can affirm that Christ is your only plea, the sole source of your salvation, and the anchor of your hope, you can confidently say that you possess the Son and, therefore, eternal life.
