How do we know Jesus Christ is the elect of God?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus Christ is affirmed as the elect of God, as stated in Isaiah 42, where God refers to Him as 'My elect' who brings salvation.

The concept of election is crucial in understanding the identity of Jesus Christ in Scripture. In Isaiah 42:1, God identifies Jesus as His elect, chosen to fulfill His redemptive purpose. This election is not arbitrary; it is based on God's sovereign will and purpose to save His covenant people through Jesus. Furthermore, New Testament references confirm Christ's role as the cornerstone of the church, reinforcing His elect status as foundational for all believers who are also chosen in Him.
Scripture References: Isaiah 42:1, Ephesians 1:4-5, 1 Peter 2:4-6
