How do we know that God's electing grace is true?

Answered in 3 sources

God's electing grace is affirmed through scriptural teaching and the consistent testimony of believers' lives.

God's electing grace is a key tenet of sovereign grace theology, grounded heavily in scriptural evidence. Ephesians 1:4-5 tells us that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world, indicating His sovereignty in salvation. This teaching is central in Reformed theology and is reflected in the teachings of the apostles, like Paul in Titus. The evidence of this grace is seen in the transformation of lives, as those who are elect are regenerated by the Holy Spirit to respond in faith. Hence, the reality of God's electing grace not only comes from scripture but is demonstrated through the lives of believers who exhibit fruit consistent with their faith.
