67问 什麼是有效的恩召？
王志勇版
三十六．有效的恩召
67問：什麼是有效的恩召？
答：有效的恩召是上帝的大能和恩典的作為（約5:25；弗1:18－20；提後1:8－9），
（1）祂出於對其選民白白和特別的愛，並不是因為他們身上有什麼促使祂行動的東西（多3:4－5；弗2:4－5，7－9；羅9:11）；
（2）在祂所悅納的日子，藉著祂的聖言和聖靈，邀請並吸引他們歸向基督耶穌（林後5:20，比較林後6:1－2；約6:44；帖後 2:13－14）；
（3）救贖性地啟迪他們的心思（徒26:18；林前2:10，12），更新並大有權能地決定他們的意志（結11:19；36:26－27；約6:45），
（4）使得已經死在罪惡之中的他們變得甘心樂意，能夠自由爽快地回應祂的呼召，領受其中所顯明並傳遞的恩 典（弗2:5；腓2:13；申 30:6）。
吕沛渊版
問：「有效的恩召」是什麼？
答：「有效的恩召」是上帝的全能與恩典的作為，出自祂對選民的白白與特別的愛，並非由於他們身上有任何原因促使祂如此作；在祂悅納的時候，祂以此有效恩召，吸引他們歸向耶穌基督，這是藉著祂的聖道與聖靈所作成的。

Q. 67. What is effectual calling?
A. Effectual calling is the work of God's almighty power and grace, whereby (out of his free and special love to his elect, and from nothing in them moving him thereunto) he doth, in his accepted time, invite and draw them to Jesus Christ, by his word and Spirit; savingly enlightening their minds, renewing and powerfully determining their wills, so as they (although in themselves dead in sin) are hereby made willing and able freely to answer his call, and to accept and embrace the grace offered and conveyed therein.
