How do we know we are redeemed by God?

We know we are redeemed by God through the promises He has made in His Word, which assures us of salvation. In Isaiah 43:1, God declares, "I have redeemed thee; I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine." This personal and direct affirmation gives us the confidence that our redemption is real and not merely abstract. Additionally, the conviction we feel in our hearts—the work of the Holy Spirit—acts as a testimony to our redeemed status, guiding us to faith in Christ. The Scriptures emphasize that it is God’s love that leads to redemption, demonstrating a relationship founded on His grace rather than our own merits.
