How do we know that the love of Christ is for His chosen people?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture indicates that Christ's love is specific to those whom He has chosen, reflecting God's sovereign grace.

The love of Christ for His chosen people is a central theme in the Bible, grounded in the doctrine of election and sovereign grace. In Romans 9:13, the scripture explicitly states, 'Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated,' highlighting that God's love is selective and purposeful. This is further affirmed by passages such as Ephesians 1:4-5, which reveals that believers were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless. The special relationship underscores that God's love is not a general sentiment but a powerful and effective commitment to redeem a specific people, ensuring their ultimate salvation through Christ's redemptive work.
