What does the Bible say about man's unbelief in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible illustrates that even those closest to Christ can exhibit unbelief, showing humanity's need for divine grace.

The passage highlights the hardness of human hearts, as even Jesus' own brethren did not believe in Him despite witnessing His miracles and hearing His teachings. This reinforces the Scriptural doctrine that humanity requires preventing and converting grace, emphasizing that merely being in the presence of Christ or possessing spiritual privileges does not guarantee belief. As Jesus Himself stated, 'No man can come to me except the Father who has sent me draw him' (John 6:44), indicating the necessity of God’s effectual calling for true faith to arise in a person's heart.
