How do we know God's love is everlasting?

Answered in 16 sources

God’s everlasting love is affirmed in Scripture, as it indicates that His affections for His chosen ones existed before creation.

The concept of God's everlasting love is rooted profoundly in the Scriptures, particularly highlighted in Micah 5:2. This verse indicates that Jesus' affections for His people were established 'from of old, from everlasting.' It suggests that before any creation took place, Christ had already committed Himself to the salvation of His people. In the broader context of the Bible, such as in Romans 8:28-30, we see God's unwavering purpose toward those whom He foreknew, implying a love that is immutable and eternal. These truths reinforce that if Christ has loved us with this everlasting love, He will not abandon us now. His changeless nature ensures that His love remains constant, serving as a foundation for our faith and assurance in Him.
