How do we know that believers are beloved by Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

Believers are assured of Christ's love through His redemptive actions and their transformed status as His cherished possession.

The assurance that believers are beloved by Christ is deeply rooted in the truth of Scripture, which states that believers are Christ's by creation and redemption (Song of Solomon 7:10). Christ's sacrificial work on the cross has purchased them at an infinite price, assuring them of their status as His own. This love is not merely theoretical; it manifests in a transformative relationship, fostering a profound joy and confidence in their standing before God as beloved children (Romans 8:15-17). The believer's acknowledgment of, 'I am my Beloved's,' encapsulates this truth that He desires them and draws them near.
