How do we know Christ chose us?

Answered in 1 source

Christ chose us, as stated in John 15:16, emphasizing His sovereignty in salvation.

In John 15:16, Jesus confirms, 'Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you.' This declaration showcases the sovereignty of God in salvation, highlighting that it is not based on our actions or decisions but on God's electing grace. Understanding that we are chosen gives believers assurance and confidence in their relationship with Christ, emphasizing that salvation is entirely a work of grace and not of human merit. This truth frees us from striving to gain God's favor and redirects our focus on the grace bestowed upon us through Christ.
