How do we know election is true in the covenant of grace?

Answered in 1 source

Election is rooted in the immutable character of God, signifying that it rests not on human merit but solely on His sovereign choice.

The truth of election is fundamentally tied to the nature of God's grace and His sovereignty. Scripture clearly depicts that God's election of individuals to salvation is based not on foreseen merit or actions, but on His own sovereign will as outlined in Ephesians 1:4-5. The unconditional nature of grace means that if even one of God's chosen sheep were to perish, it would imply a failure of God's promises (Hebrews 6:17-19). Thus, understanding that election is grounded in God's character rather than human effort allows believers to trust in His faithfulness and assures them of His unbreakable covenant.
