How do we know eternal life is given to believers?

Answered in 1 source

Believers are assured of eternal life through their faith in Christ, as they are justified and forgiven.

In John 5:24, Jesus assures that those who believe in Him and hear His word already possess everlasting life. This assurance is rooted in the complete justification and forgiveness that believers receive through Christ's sacrifice, which removes all condemnation. The significance of this truth cannot be overstated; it reflects a profound change in one’s status before God, moving from death to life as a new creation. Romans 8:34 further underscores that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ.
