How do we know that all believers are the elect of God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible confirms that all true believers are elect because they are chosen by God before the foundation of the world.

The doctrine of election is critical in Reformed theology, affirming that all true believers are part of the elect of God. Ephesians 1 speaks of Christians as being chosen before the foundation of the world in Christ. This means that every individual who comes to faith in Christ is part of God's plan of salvation. In this context, being 'elect' relates not only to individuals but collectively to the body of Christ, which includes both Jews and Gentiles. The elect are those whom Christ died for, and their election is not based on their works or decisions but solely on God's sovereign grace. This assurance provides believers with the confidence that their salvation is secure in God's purpose and plan.
