How do we know that God has chosen us before the foundation of the world?

Answered in 1 source

Ephesians 1:4 explicitly states that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world.

The assurance of God's choosing us before the foundation of the world is rooted in Scripture, specifically Ephesians 1:4, which declares that God the Father has chosen believers in Christ for His purpose. This choice emphasizes God's sovereignty and intention in salvation. It is not based on any merit or action of our own; rather, it stems from His divine will and grace. Understanding this doctrine not only humbles us but also fills us with gratitude for God’s love shown in choosing us despite our unworthiness. It affirms that our existence as His children was predetermined by His loving decision, not by our decisions.
