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

Assurance of being part of God's elect comes through faith and the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. As discussed in 1 John 5:13, knowing that one has eternal life is fundamental, and this assurance is based on believing in the name of the Son of God. Additionally, the presence of spiritual fruits, such as love, joy, and peace (Galatians 5:22-23), evident in a believer's life, can serve as a confirmation of their election. The struggle to believe may be common, but as God numbers His elect, it is through Christ and His completed work that believers find their assurance and identity. As stated, God will declare His chosen, reminding Christians that their faith and transformation are indicators of their status as the elect.
