How do we know we have saving faith?

Answered in 2 sources

We know we have saving faith through the presence of spiritual fruit that confirms our relationship with Christ.

Saving faith is evidenced by a transformed life that bears spiritual fruit. According to James, faith without works is dead, meaning that genuine faith naturally results in good works that validate its authenticity. The presence of these fruits—such as virtue, knowledge, and charity—indicates that we have received a new heart and spirit from God, which are essential in true Christian obedience. This transformation points to the work of Christ in us, as He causes us to walk according to His statutes and produce fruit that pleases Him.
