How does the Holy Spirit seek the lost according to the sermon?

Answered in 1 source

The Holy Spirit seeks the lost through the preaching of the gospel, illuminating their hearts with the light of Christ.

According to the sermon, the Holy Spirit actively seeks the lost by employing the means of the gospel's preaching. Just as the woman lit a candle to find her lost coin, the Holy Spirit uses the gospel as the 'light' that reveals truth and brings awareness to those in darkness. This metaphor highlights the necessity of the gospel in bringing light into the hearts of individuals, making them alive to their sin and need for Christ. It is through this divine illumination that sinners can experience true repentance and faith, as demonstrated in 2 Corinthians 4:6, where God shines light into hearts to give the knowledge of His glory.
