I'm not sure what you mean. I don't see anyone believing that we can stop someone from coming to God. Why would we?

But it's God who calls the shots. It is He who gives us our faith and brings us to repentance. He opens our eyes and ears to the truth and gives us the wisdom from above to come to the knowledge of the truth.

There is nothing we have that has not been given to us.

Don't assert. Demonstrate. You do know, don't you, that there is no place in scripture that describes faith as a gift of God (be careful of referring to Ephesians 2:8, because it doesn't say this)?
