How do we know if we are chosen by God?

The topic of election is addressed in Scripture, particularly in Matthew 20:16 where Jesus states, 'many are called, but few are chosen.' Assurance of being chosen by God comes through faith in Jesus Christ, who Himself is the embodiment of grace and the object of our trust. The Holy Spirit plays a vital role in this assurance, as indicated in Romans 8:16, where it states that 'the Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.' This internal confirmation, coupled with a genuine faith that cries out for God's mercy, indicates a work of grace within us. Therefore, believers should look to their trust in Christ and the workings of the Spirit as affirmations of their divine election.
