What does the Bible say about the call of Levi the publican?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible depicts Jesus calling Levi, the publican, illustrating God's grace in saving sinners.

In Mark 2:14, Jesus sees Levi sitting at the tax booth and says, 'Follow me.' This call exemplifies God's effectual and gracious calling, demonstrating His initiative in salvation. Levi, who was despised for his role as a tax collector, responds immediately, illustrating that God's grace does not depend on human merit. This gracious call reflects the principle of irresistible grace, affirming that when God calls, it effectively draws a sinner to Himself.
