How do we know that Jesus dwells in us?

In John 14:23, Jesus promises that He and the Father will make their abode with those who love Him and keep His words. This signifies a deep, abiding presence within the believer. This promise is grounded in the notion that salvation is a work of grace that invites cooperation between divine initiative and human adherence to faith. When believers obey not out of obligation but out of love for God, it showcases that Christ is actively dwelling in them, guiding their lives and transforming their hearts. The assurance of this indwelling provides encouragement as believers navigate the trials of life.
