How do we know that Jesus came to save a specific people?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that the Father gave a specific number of people to Christ for salvation before the foundation of the world.

Scripture clearly indicates that Jesus came to save a distinct group of people whom the Father had given to Him before creation. This is articulated in John 17:2, where Jesus states that He should give eternal life 'to as many as Thou hast given Him.' This plan was established in the covenant of grace, highlighting that Christ came as the Redeemer, not for the world indiscriminately, but for those chosen by God to be His elect. Such claims confirm the historic Reformed understanding of limited atonement or particular redemption.
