Bible Note: Greetings Doc! Without getting into a long discussion, the short answer to your question is found in John 3:36: "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him." Those who are drawn and 'believe' will receive eternal life. Those who don't believe will not be saved. Unless, you are assuming that all who are 'drawn' will believe, in which case, you would have to provide a Scripture reference which states that this is the case. I look up every verse where 'drawn' is used, and none of them say any such thing. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
