What does the Bible say about hearing Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that hearing of Christ's fame draws sinners to Him, much like the Queen of Sheba was drawn to Solomon (1 Kings 10:1-2).

The act of hearing about Christ is pivotal in the journey of salvation. In the biblical account of the Queen of Sheba, we see that her interest in Solomon was sparked by the fame attributed to him, which led her to seek him out. Similarly, when sinners hear of Christ, particularly in the context of His divine nature and redemptive work, they are compelled to approach Him. This concept is encapsulated in John 6:44, where Jesus declares that no one can come to Him unless the Father draws them. Thus, the initial hearing serves as a divine prompting towards a deeper relationship with Christ.
