What does the Bible say about why people do not come to Christ?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible states that people will not come to Christ because they are spiritually dead in their sins and have no desire for Him.
According to John 5:40, Jesus declares that individuals will not come to Him to have life. This rejection stems from their fallen nature; as the sermon explains, man is dead in trespasses and sins, lacking any desire to seek or embrace the Savior. The Lord's words illustrate that it is not mere indecision but a deep-rooted unwillingness caused by their rebellion against God's grace. By nature, people harbor a resentment toward the truth of God's sovereign grace, preferring to rely on their own righteousness, which ultimately leads them away from Christ rather than to Him.
