How do we know God's love and sovereignty are true?
Answered in 1 source
God's love is evident in His eternal covenant and the salvation of His elect, demonstrating His sovereignty in choosing and redeeming His people (Romans 8:29-30).
The truth of God's love and sovereignty is rooted in the doctrine of election and the covenant of grace. According to Romans 8:29-30, God foreknew and predestined a people for Himself, demonstrating that His love is particular and effectual. God's sovereignty ensures that His purpose will prevail, and His elect will be saved by grace through faith in Christ alone. The assurance of salvation lies not in our decisions but in the unchanging will of God, who has eternally loved His chosen people and redeemed them through the work of His Son, Jesus Christ. This ongoing work of sanctification and the eventual glorification of believers underscores His sovereignty and unwavering love.
