How does the Spirit confirm our identity as children of God?

Answered in 1 source

The Spirit confirms our identity as children of God by enabling us to rejoice in the gospel of Christ.

The Holy Spirit actively participates in declaring our status as God's children. Romans 8:16 states that the Spirit bears witness with our spirit, allowing us to affirm our relationship with God. This often occurs when we hear the gospel, leading us to rejoice and embrace the truth of our salvation. It's this joyous response to the gospel that acts as evidence of the Spirit's work in us, confirming that we are indeed children of God.
