How does God call and save His people?

God's method of calling and saving His people is through His sovereign initiative, primarily expressed through the preaching of the gospel. Romans 10:14-15 highlights this process: 'How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?' This illustrates the necessity of God-ordained preaching as the means by which He reveals Himself and calls individuals to repentance and faith. Just as Saul was dramatically called on the road to Damascus, God works through the gospel to bring about a realization of His grace, transform hearts, and lead sinners to salvation. This act of divine calling is a pivotal moment wherein individuals come to recognize their need for Christ and His redemptive work.
