How do we know God's call to repentance is effective?

Answered in 1 source

God's call to repentance is effective because it transforms hearts and leads individuals to genuine faith and obedience.

The effectiveness of God's call to repentance is displayed through its ability to bring about true change in the believer’s life. When the trumpet of God's Word is blown, it serves not only as a warning but as an invitation to receive grace. According to Ezekiel 33:11, God expresses His desire for the wicked to turn from their ways and live; thus, His call is rooted in love. A sincere response to the gospel results in a transformed life, marked by a desire to follow God's commands. The Holy Spirit actively works to ensure that the call is not in vain, leading to genuine repentance and faith.
