How do we know Jesus' call to come is universal?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' invitation, 'If any man thirst, let him come unto Me,' illustrates that His call extends to all who recognize their need for Him.

In the sermon, the preacher emphasizes that Jesus calls all men without distinction to come to Him, reflecting the inclusivity of the Gospel. This universal call is rooted in the doctrine of total depravity, as all humanity is born in sin and finds need for a Savior. Jesus' example shows that He is a representative man who stands in the gap for Adam's fallen race, allowing anyone who feels spiritually thirsty, regardless of their past, to approach Him for salvation. This act is grounded in grace, reaching out to those who acknowledge their sinfulness and need.
