What does the Bible say about the sinner being brought to faith in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that sinners are brought to faith in Christ by God's sovereign grace through the hearing of the gospel.

According to Isaiah 19:18-25, the transformation of sinners to faith in Christ is illustrated by God's work among the Egyptians. The potpourri of worship and vain confidences is stripped away by God's sovereign decree, leading chosen individuals to turn from idolatry and embrace the gospel. This reflects the nature of God's grace, which compels the sinner to acknowledge their inability to save themselves and to rely solely on Christ's redemptive work. Just as Paul explains in 2 Thessalonians 2:13, God chooses individuals to salvation through the sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth, indicating that faith is a gift from God rather than a result of human effort.
