How do we know God's love is distinct for His people?

Answered in 1 source

God's love is specifically towards His elect as demonstrated through Christ's sacrificial death for them.

The distinction of God's love for His people is rooted in the understanding that not all are included in His redemptive plan. As stated in the sermon, if God loves everyone equally and some perish, then His love and Christ's atonement lose their meaning. The message centers around the belief that Christ’s death was not an attempt to redeem everyone but rather a successful act of salvation for those chosen by God. This truth underscores the uniqueness of covenant love, which is directed towards the elect, ensuring that His love effectively leads to their deliverance and eternal life.
