How does the Holy Spirit's call relate to election?

Answered in 1 source

The Holy Spirit's call is a manifestation of God's election, occurring without human input and through divine love.

The Holy Spirit's effectual call is directly linked to God's election, serving as the means through which the chosen ones come to faith. In John 6:44, Jesus teaches that no one can come to Him unless drawn by the Father, signifying that the Spirit’s work is initiated solely by God's will. This reflects the same manner in which God elected individuals, which is done without any contribution from them. Therefore, the Spirit's call is not only powerful and effective but also characteristically consistent with God’s love and divine purpose, ensuring that salvation is entirely the work of God in Christ alone.
