How do we know God's love for the elect is unconditional?
Answered in 1 source
God's love for the elect is unconditional because it was established before the foundation of the world, independent of any actions or merit from individuals.
Ephesians 1 affirms that in love, God predestined the elect before the foundation of the world. This unconditional aspect of divine love is critical in understanding salvation. As stated in the sermon, God's love does not depend on human merits or the foreseen actions of individuals. Instead, it is rooted in His sovereign choice, reflecting His grace and mercy rather than human performance. This underscores the assurance believers have: our salvation is secure not because of our worthiness but because of God's gracious and eternal will, which is unchangeable and effectively brings about His purposes.
