How do we know we are truly born of God?

Answered in 1 source

You can know you are born of God if you believe in Jesus Christ and manifest a life that expresses love and righteousness.

Evidence of being born of God is articulated in 1 John 5:1, which states that 'Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God.' This belief is more than mere acknowledgment; it encompasses a deep-seated faith that Jesus is the sustaining foundation of one's salvation. Furthermore, those born of God will exhibit attributes such as love for fellow believers and a longing for righteousness (1 John 4:7). The transformative power of the new birth instills a desire to abide in Christ, as highlighted in 1 John 3:6, where it states that the one who abides in Him does not sin.
