What does it mean to be drawn to Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Being drawn to Christ means being summoned by God’s providence to repentance and faith.

To be drawn to Christ signifies the incomprehensible grace of God in calling sinners to Himself. This divine drawing is not a mere invitation but a powerful act of God's will, reflecting His sovereign choice and action. John 6:44 notes that no one can come to Christ unless the Father draws him, showing that this movement toward Christ is initiated by God's grace, not human effort. As seen in Luke 15, the publicans and sinners were responding to Christ's call, indicating that when God draws people to Christ, He provides the desire and capacity for repentance and faith. Thus, being drawn encompasses both the acknowledgment of one’s sinfulness and the reception of God’s mercy through Christ.
