How do we know that God has saved us?

Our assurance of salvation rests in the faithful promises of God. As mentioned in 2 Timothy 1:9, God saves us and calls us not according to our works but according to His own purpose and grace, given to us in Christ before the world began. This divine calling is made manifest through the gospel and the work of Jesus Christ. Understanding that salvation is by grace ensures that it is not dependent on our efforts but is secured in Christ’s finished work. Therefore, our confidence in salvation comes from recognizing God’s unwavering grace and purpose demonstrated in our lives.
