How does God gather His people?

Answered in 6 sources

God gathers His people through His sovereign will and the faithful proclamation of His Word by preachers.

God's gathering of His people is depicted in Jeremiah 23:3, where He promises to gather the remnant of His flock wherever they have been scattered. This gathering entails both His sovereign action and the means of preaching. Romans 10:14-17 emphasizes that faith comes through hearing, and hearing through the Word of God. Thus, God utilizes preachers to call His chosen people back to Him, ensuring that His elect are gathered to safety and secured by His grace.
