How do we know the gospel call is irresistible?

Answered in 1 source

The gospel call is deemed irresistible as it is backed by God's sovereign grace, effectively drawing His chosen people to Him.

In the context of Isaiah 55, the gospel call specifically addresses those whom God has chosen, making it an irresistible call. This aligns with Reformed theology where we understand that God's grace is not merely sufficient but effectual for those He elects. The verse ensures that when God calls the thirsty to come, it is by His power and grace that they will respond, fulfilling His covenant promises to His people. The presence of faith in those called is confirmed by their undeniable longing for Christ, as they recognize their inability to satisfy their spiritual hunger apart from Him.
