John 6:37
37 aAll that bthe Father gives me will come to me, and cwhoever comes to me I will never cast out.John 6:44-45
44No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me ddraws him. And eI will raise him up on the last day. 45It is written in the Prophets, f‘And they will all be gtaught by God.’ hEveryone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me—John 6:65
65And he said, “This is why I told you ithat no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.”John 8:47
47 jWhoever is of God hears the words of God. kThe reason why you do not hear them is that lyou are not of God.”John 10:4
4When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.John 10:27
27 mMy sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.John 12:37-40
37Though he had done so many signs before them, they still did not believe in him, 38 nso that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:o“Lord, who has believed what he heard from us,
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39Therefore they pcould not believe. For again Isaiah said,
40 q“He has blinded their eyes
and rhardened their heart,
lest they see with their eyes,
and understand with their heart, and turn,
and I would heal them.”
Romans 11:7-8
7What then? sIsrael failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest twere hardened, 8as it is written,u“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
veyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”
2 Corinthians 4:3-4
3And even wif our gospel is veiled, xit is veiled to ythose who are perishing. 4In their case zthe god of this world aahas blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing abthe light of acthe gospel of the glory of Christ, adwho is the image of God.1 John 4:6
6We are from God. aeWhoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know afthe Spirit of truth and agthe spirit of error.
