How do we know that election in the Bible is true?
Answered in 1 source
Election is a biblical doctrine firmly supported by Scripture, affirming God's sovereign choice in salvation.
Election refers to God’s sovereign choice of individuals for salvation and is extensively taught in Scripture. Ephesians 1:4 states, 'He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love.' This speaks to God’s eternal and purposeful election, emphasizing that it is not based on human merit but solely on His grace. Such truths are foundational to understanding God's sovereign grace. The assurance that we are chosen and accepted in Christ provides believers with deep comfort and security in their salvation. Understanding election allows Christians to grasp the depth of God’s mercy and love toward His chosen people.
