Why is it important for Christians to understand who seeks who first?

Answered in 1 source

It's vital because understanding that God seeks the sinner first underscores His grace and mercy.

Recognizing that God seeks the sinner highlights the unmerited grace extended to humanity. Isaiah proclaimed, 'I was found of them that sought me not' (Isaiah 65:1), illustrating that it is God who takes the initiative in salvation. This theological perspective reassures believers that their salvation does not stem from their own seeking but from God's sovereign will and mercy. This understanding leads to gratitude and assurance, affirming that none can come to Christ unless drawn by the Father (John 6:44).
