How do we know if we truly have faith in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

True faith is demonstrated by love for Christ, rooted in the inner man, rather than mere knowledge or outward acts.

True faith in Christ goes beyond intellectual assent or outward behavior. As noted in Ephesians 3:16, genuine faith involves Christ dwelling in our hearts and being rooted in love. This love is not a casual sentiment but a profound work of the Holy Spirit within us, enabling believers to experience and express the fullness of God's love. If our faith is true, it will manifest in our love for God and others, as articulated in 1 Corinthians 13. Therefore, assurance of faith is found not in our gifts or abilities but in the heart transformed by Christ's love, which compels us to live for Him.
