How do we know that God intends to save His people?
Answered in 1 source
God's intention to save is clear in Scripture, where He promises to give life and breath to His people, ensuring that they will know Him as the Lord.
God's intention to save His people is vividly expressed through the prophetic words in Ezekiel 37:5-6, where He declares, 'I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live.' This assurance reflects God's commitment not only to restore physical Israel but to bring spiritual life to His people through Jesus Christ. Throughout the Scriptures, it is emphasized that God's aim is to save sinners from sin and death, with numerous promises pointing toward redemption and new life. The consistent theme is that God acts not for the sake of the people’s worth but for His own glory and namesake, revealing His character as a loving and restorative God.
