How do we know that Christ loves His people?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's love for His people is known through His obedience and His sacrificial death, as He willingly laid down His life for them.

The certainty of Christ's love for His people is illustrated in John 15:13, where Jesus states that no greater love exists than for a man to lay down his life for his friends. This profound act of love was realized in His death on the cross, where He served as a substitute for His elect. His obedience to the Father's will, even unto death, demonstrates a love that is perfect and unconditional. Furthermore, this sacrificial act assures believers of their value in God's eyes, reinforcing the truth that they are loved not only as individuals but as part of Christ's body.
