How do we know election is true in salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible affirms election through God's sovereign will as evidenced by His consistent plan of redemption throughout Scripture.

Election is a crucial doctrine grounded in Scripture, as seen in Ephesians 1:4-5, where it states that God chose us in Him before the foundation of the world. The sovereignty of God in election means He predestines some unto salvation out of His grace. This is not based on foreseen faith or merit but solely according to His own purpose and will. The testimony of the early church and the preaching of the Gospel support this truth, as the salvation narrative emphasizes God's initiative and sovereign plan to redeem His people, such as the conversion of the Philippian jailer, showcasing both God's sovereignty and the means through which He brings about salvation.
