How do we know if God has saved us?

Answered in 1 source

We know God has saved us through the evidence of faith in Christ and the resulting love and transformation in our lives.

Understanding the assurance of salvation comes through recognizing the work of God in our lives. According to Colossians 1:4, Paul credits their salvation to their faith in Jesus Christ. Genuine faith leads to the experience of God's grace and results in a love for others. Furthermore, salvation is evidenced by the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, which changes our desires and actions. If we believe in Christ and observe the fruit of the Spirit in our lives, such as love, joy, and peace, we can be confident that God has performed a work of salvation in us. Therefore, the combination of faith, love, and transformation provides reassurance of our standing before God.
