How does divine election relate to coming to Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Divine election assures that all whom the Father gives to Jesus will come to Him (John 6:37).

Divine election is a key doctrine within sovereign grace theology, indicating that God has chosen certain individuals to be saved before the foundation of the world. This grace-driven choice aligns with Jesus' teaching in John 6:37, where He states, 'All that the Father giveth me shall come to me.' It highlights that those who come to Christ do so as a result of the Father’s drawing. The evidence of this election is seen in the genuine earnestness of coming to Christ, as those who recognize their need and have been drawn by God will seek Him for rest.
