How does God draw people to believe in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God draws people to believe in Christ through the effectual calling of the Holy Spirit, enabling them to recognize their need for salvation.

The Bible teaches in John 6:44 that no man can come to Christ unless the Father draws him. This indicates that belief in Christ is not a result of human effort or decision but rather a sovereign act of God. The effectual calling of the Holy Spirit grants spiritual life and understanding, revealing our sinfulness and our need for the righteousness found solely in Christ. As Paul affirms in 1 Corinthians 1:24, those who are called see Christ as the power and wisdom of God, recognizing that only in Him is their salvation secured.
