How do we know we are part of God's beloved?

Answered in 1 source

We know we are part of God's beloved by having obtained faith through the righteousness of Jesus Christ.

In his epistle, Peter addresses believers as the 'beloved,' indicating they have obtained like precious faith through the righteousness of Jesus Christ. This assurance comes from recognizing that our faith is a gift from God, allowing us to be accepted in the beloved. Here, being part of the beloved signifies a relationship founded on grace and unmerited favor. For every believer, the deep understanding of Christ’s righteousness imputed to them enables them to rest in the truth of their acceptance and identity as God’s cherished people.
