How do we know we are approved by God?

Answered in 1 source

We are approved by God through our faith in Christ and the evidences of our genuine belief.

The approval of God manifests itself through our unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. According to 1 Corinthians 11:19, the existence of heresies helps reveal those who are approved. Believers do not choose to believe but are compelled by the truth of the gospel, which they embrace wholeheartedly. This is evident in the transformation of their lives and their response to God’s Word. Moreover, Romans 1:17 informs us that 'the just shall live by faith,' signifying that true believers exhibit their approval through lives characterized by trust in God and obedience to His commands. Thus, our faith, coupled with the outworking of that faith through love and obedience, is the assurance of our approval by God.
