How do we know that God loves us as He loves Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God's love for us is demonstrated by our union with Christ, as we are seen in Him and treated as His own.

The assurance of God's love towards believers stems from the truth that we are united with Christ, meaning that as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17). This union encapsulates the essence of sovereign grace theology, where believers enjoy the same grace and favor from God as Christ does. Isaiah 45:1-3 reveals that when God addresses Jesus, He also is inherently addressing us because we are joint heirs with Him. The love Christ receives from the Father extends to us, illuminating the personal and profound nature of our redemption and the unbreakable bond we have with the God of Israel.
