What role does the Holy Spirit play in election?

Answered in 1 source

The Holy Spirit applies the benefits of election to the chosen, regenerating and enabling them to come to faith.

The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in the doctrine of election by applying the redemptive work of Christ to the lives of the elect. This is often referred to as the work of regeneration or the new birth, where the Spirit makes the chosen willing and able to respond to the gospel. John 6:44 illustrates this when Christ states that 'no man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him.' The Holy Spirit's ministry is vital in enabling the elect to approach God through faith, transforming their hearts and ensuring that the effects of election are realized in their lives.
