What does the Bible say about coming to Christ?

Answered in 21 sources

The Bible indicates that those who are under the influence of the Holy Spirit will certainly come to Christ, motivated by love rather than compulsion.

The Scriptures assure us that everyone who is influenced by the Holy Spirit will inevitably come to God through Christ. This coming is not a forced action but a joyful response to the revelation of one's guilt and need for salvation. As noted in Hosea 11:4, the sinner is drawn by the 'bands of love' and the 'cords of a man', indicating that God's drawing is gentle yet irresistible because of His gracious love.
