How do we know God is for us?

Answered in 12 sources

We know God is for us because He has predestined, called, justified, and glorified His elect, as stated in Romans 8:31.

Romans 8:31 asks, 'If God be for us, who can be against us?' This rhetorical question emphasizes the certainty of God's support for His people. The entire passage illustrates that God has taken every step necessary for our salvation—He predestined His elect, called them out of darkness, justified them through Christ, and will ultimately glorify them. When we understand that God Himself is the one who has initiated and completed our salvation, it becomes apparent that no external force can stand against us. His love and grace provide us security and assurance irrespective of challenges we may face.
