How do we know that Christ loves His elect?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's love for His elect is affirmed in scriptures like Romans 9, illustrating His sovereign choice and grace toward them.

The love of Christ for His elect is exemplified primarily in Romans 9, where it states that 'Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.' This passage underscores God's sovereign choice in salvation, showing that not all who are outwardly part of Israel are His true people. Instead, His elect are those chosen according to His divine purpose and grace, a reality evidenced throughout scripture. This divine election illustrates not only God's love but also His intention to save a particular people for Himself, confirming that Christ's love is not arbitrary but intentional and designed for His glory.
