How does God call His people to repentance?

Answered in 1 source

God calls His people to repentance through their circumstances and His Word, urging them to recognize their need for Him.

The call to repentance is a central theme found throughout scripture and is exemplified in Isaiah 22. In this chapter, God invites His people to see their sin and turn back to Him amidst their affliction. The gospel message is characterized by this divine call to repentance; as people experience their own brokenness and sinfulness, they are drawn to the mercy of God. Verses 12-14 reflect God's persistent call to His people to abandon their revelry and recognize their spiritual plight, reinforcing that genuine repentance is a response to God’s dealings with us. It emphasizes that repentance is not merely an emotional response but a transformative acknowledgment of our need for His grace.
