How do we know election and Christ's redemption are true?

Answered in 1 source

Election and Christ's redemption are true as they are rooted in God's sovereignty and revealed throughout Scripture, confirming His plan for salvation for His elect.

Election refers to God's sovereign choice of certain individuals for salvation, which is intertwined with Christ's redemption. Ephesians 1:4-5 asserts that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world. This divine election is not random but is part of God's eternal plan to demonstrate His grace and mercy. Jesus' atoning work on the cross was specifically for those whom the Father has given Him, as indicated in John 6:37, where He promises that all whom the Father gives will come to Him. Thus, the doctrines of election and specific redemption are foundational to understanding God's work in salvation.
