How do we know God's love for His people is unchanging?
Answered in 1 source
Scripture assures us that God's love for His elect is everlasting and unchanging, as declared in Hosea 14:4.
The unchanging nature of God's love is rooted in His covenant promises and the work of Christ. In Hosea 14:4, God states, 'I will heal their backslidings; I will love them freely.' This promise affirms that God's love is not based on our actions but on His eternal purpose. Additionally, the New Testament echoes this, reminding us that nothing can separate us from the love of God (Romans 8:38-39). God's love is not contingent upon our faithfulness; rather, it is demonstrated through Christ's sacrificial atonement and unconditional grace bestowed upon His people, ensuring that His love remains steadfast despite our failures.
