What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty in calling people?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God sovereignly calls individuals whom He chooses, demonstrating His will and purpose.

In Mark 3:13, it states that Jesus went up to a mountain and called unto Him whom He would, emphasizing His sovereign choice in appointing His disciples. This demonstrates that God does not call everyone but chooses individuals according to His divine purpose. The concept of God's sovereignty in calling is foundational in Reformed theology, where it is believed that God’s grace is irresistible and effectual; those whom He calls will inevitably come to Him.
Scripture References: Mark 3:13, Ephesians 1:4-5
