Why is the calling of God important in salvation?

Answered in 1 source

God's calling is a crucial aspect of salvation as it signifies His initiative and sovereign grace in bringing individuals to faith.

In Galatians, Paul highlights the significance of being called by God into the grace of Christ. This calling refers not only to the general invitation of the gospel but also to the specific, effectual call that leads to true faith and repentance. The understanding of God's sovereign calling reassures believers that their salvation is not based on their merit but solely on God's grace and purpose, as indicated in scripture where those He predestined He also called.
