How does God bring someone to repentance?

Answered in 1 source

God uses the Holy Spirit to illuminate the truth of the Gospel and convict hearts for repentance.

According to the teachings presented in John 16, the Holy Spirit plays a central role in bringing individuals to repentance. He convicts people of their sin, the righteousness of Christ, and the judgment that is to come. This divine influence transforms a person's heart and mind, moving them to understand their guilt before God and their need for Christ's righteousness, which ultimately leads to true repentance. The process emphasizes that repentance is not a human endeavor but rather a work of God in the hearts of His elect.
