How do we know that salvation is not an invitation but a command?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture clearly states that God commands all men everywhere to repent, rather than simply inviting them to make a choice.

While many view salvation as an invitation, the biblical perspective underscores that it is a command from God. In Luke 14:17, the master commands those invited to 'come' to the supper, reflecting the urgency and necessity of divine instruction. Additionally, Acts 17:30 reinforces this mandate, affirming that God commands all people to repent. Salvation isn't a passive offer but an imperative call from a sovereign God who desires repentance and belief in Jesus Christ alone.
