How do we know that God's drawing is necessary for salvation?

The necessity of God's drawing for salvation is grounded in the teachings of Christ. In John 6:44, Jesus states, 'No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him.' This affirms the total inability of fallen humanity to seek God on their own, as outlined in 1 Corinthians 2:14, where it says that the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit. The drawing of the Father is not merely an invitation but a divine enabling for the chosen to come to Christ, signifying His sovereign initiative in the salvation process.
