Default No man has freewill to come to Jesus

The untruth of today is that man has a freewill to choose christ, but Jesus himself says mans will is not free..

Jn 6:

44No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

To come means to believe in Him for salvation.

Jesus says no man can or has the ability to believe in me, only if the father grants them that privilege..

paul says the same thing about having been given the right to believe in christ..


phil 1:

29For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

To some Jesus says they cannot believe..

Jn 12:

37But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

38That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

39Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

40He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

41These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
