Are the elect only effectually called?

All the elect, and they only, are effectually called;a although others may be, and often are, outwardly called by the ministry of the word,b and have some common operations of the Spirit;c who, for their wilful neglect and contempt of the grace offered to them, being justly left in their unbelief, do never truly come to Jesus Christ.d
