Explain how God calls people.
God calls by extending the invitation to believe in Christ, and He reveals Himself so the invitation can be heard - through creation, conscience, the written Word, the Living Word, and the spoken Word. When a person at the point of God-consciousness is positive toward Him and wants to know more, God sees to it that he hears the Gospel.
Also asked: How does God make sure people hear the message about Jesus when they're open to knowing Him? · How does God extend an invitation to believe in Jesus Christ?
Also asked, more loosely
What ways does God use to get people's attention so they can accept His offer of salvation?
