How do we know eternal union with Christ is true?

Answered in 2 sources

We know eternal union with Christ is true through Scripture, which affirms our identity and security in Him based on God's sovereign choice.

Eternal union with Christ is affirmed consistently throughout Scripture, supporting the belief that our identity as God’s chosen people was established before the world began. In Jude 1-2, believers are described as those sanctified by God the Father and preserved in Christ, emphasizing that this relationship was initiated and maintained by God. Additionally, Ephesians 2:4-6 states that God hath quickened us together with Christ, which is a powerful declaration of our inseparable union.

The truths expressed in passages like Galatians 2:20, where Paul states, 'I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me,' further validate our eternal union. Such verses indicate that believers participate in Christ’s redemptive work, assuring us of our place in God's family and His ongoing care for us. This ongoing relationship provides believers with profound comfort and certainty, validating our faith in the promises of God.
