How do we know that God elects some for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

We know that God elects some for salvation through scripture, particularly Romans 9, which discusses God's choice of Jacob over Esau.

Romans 9:11 states that God’s purpose according to election stands, not based on works but on Him who calls. Before the twins, Jacob and Esau, were born or had done anything good or bad, God chose Jacob, illustrating the doctrine of unconditional election. This election is not based on foreseen faith or righteousness, but purely on God's sovereign will. This illustrates that salvation is not earned but bestowed according to God's grace and purpose.
