How do we know that God's elect will come to Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God’s Word assures us that all whom He has chosen will certainly come to Christ.

The certainty of God’s elect coming to Christ is grounded in Scripture that reveals His plans and purposes. For instance, in John 6:37, Jesus expresses, 'All that the Father giveth me shall come to me.' This assurance speaks to the efficacy of God’s promises and the power of His call. Those who are called are not merely invited but are given the ability and the willing heart to respond to the gospel. The narrative of Rebecca in Genesis 24 serves as a vivid illustration; she willingly came to Isaac upon receiving the servant’s message, symbolizing how God’s elect will respond positively when called effectively by the Spirit. Therefore, assurance lies in God's faithfulness to His covenant of grace, ensuring that each one chosen will come to Him in faith.
