How do we know that God has elected a people for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

The doctrine of election is grounded in Scripture, affirming that God chooses individuals for salvation based on His own purpose and will.

Election is a core tenet of sovereign grace theology, rooted in passages such as Ephesians 1:4-5, which states that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world. This choice is not based on foreseen merit or actions, but solely on God's sovereign will. As seen in the sermon, the Lord's journey to the Gadarenes exemplifies His intentionality in seeking out those He has elected, underscoring the belief that salvation stems from God's choice rather than human effort or decision. Additionally, Romans 8:29-30 elaborates on this divine plan, where those whom God foreknew, He predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son.
