How do we know our status as children of God is true?

Answered in 1 source

Our status as children of God is assured through faith in Christ and the Spirit's testimony in our hearts.

The assurance of being children of God comes primarily through faith in Christ Jesus, as stated in Galatians 3:26: 'For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.' This faith signifies a complete reliance on Christ's finished work for salvation. Moreover, the Holy Spirit testifies to our spirit that we are indeed children of God (Romans 8:16), enabling us to address God as 'Abba, Father.' This internal witness is a divine assurance that confirms our sonship and our position as heirs with Christ, granting us access to God's love and resources.
