How do we know that God brings goodwill toward men?

Answered in 1 source

God's goodwill toward men is demonstrated through His sovereign grace and the salvation offered in Christ.

The phrase 'goodwill toward men' reflects God's desire to reconcile sinners to Himself. This is seen through His actions, particularly in the sending of His Son for the salvation of sinners, as stated in Ephesians 2:14, where Christ is our peace. God's goodwill is not an indiscriminate favor; rather, it is particularly directed toward those whom He has chosen to save according to His mercy. This specific grace underscores the reality of God's loving intention for His elect.
