How do we know that God's love is revealed to us through Jesus?

The assurance of God's love being revealed through Jesus is highlighted in John 14:21, where Jesus states that those who love Him will be loved by the Father and that He will manifest Himself to them. This covenantal love is central to Reformed theology, as it affirms that God's love is specific and directed towards His elect. The experience of seeing Christ as beloved is not arbitrary but is linked to the believer's relationship with Him, underscoring the grace at work in their lives. Those who have come to Christ in faith have access to this divine revelation and communion, which strengthens their understanding of God's character and His intentions for humanity.
