How does the Holy Spirit call the bride of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Holy Spirit sovereignly calls the bride by giving them a new heart to come to Christ.

The Holy Spirit's role in calling the bride of Christ is depicted in Genesis 24, where the servant represents the Spirit sent to seek out Isaac's bride. The Spirit sovereignly moves to call God’s elect, creating a willingness to follow Christ. In John 10:27, it is affirmed that 'My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me,' reflecting the irresistible grace bestowed upon the chosen. This emphasizes that the call is not coercive but is accomplished through the Spirit’s effective work, imparting new life and a desire within the elect to come to Jesus by faith.
