How do we know Jesus was chosen by God?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible affirms that Jesus was elected by God as His servant before the foundation of the world to fulfill a specific role in salvation.

Jesus' election is clearly articulated in scripture, particularly through references like Isaiah 42, where He is called God's 'chosen servant.' This designation indicates not just a random selection but a purposeful choice made before the world's foundation, fulfilling a divine plan for redemption. His role as the Lamb of God, the mediator between God and humanity, was determined by divine election, asserting that He alone could fulfill the demands of God's justice and grace for sinners.
Scripture References: Isaiah 42:1, 1 Peter 2:4, Ephesians 1:4-5, Matthew 12:18
