How do we know God's grace is irresistible?

Answered in 12 sources

God's grace is irresistible as seen in Job 37:5-14, where He thwarts human efforts and brings about His will effortlessly, illustrating His sovereign power over individuals.

In Job 37, we witness the unparalleled authority of God as He stifles the efforts of men and commands weather phenomena like snow and rain. This demonstrates God's complete sovereignty and highlights that when He chooses to extend grace, it cannot be resisted. Just as He commands nature with authority, He similarly commands the hearts of His people, giving them faith and causing them to come to Christ without them being able to resist it. This aligns with the Reformed theology that emphasizes total depravity and God's sovereign choice in salvation, where He irresistibly draws His elect to Himself.
