>>Yes, God draws us, but He draws ALL men.

Then how does the all-powerful God of the Universe who can speak creation into existence fail at attracting all men?

He is less powerful than gravity, vacuum, magnetic force, nuclear binding force?? They always work. But when God “draws” EVERYONE, he only gets a remnant? The rest can resist his call day after day, regardless of what he does, for an entire lifetime?

He draws, He doesn’t compel.

Because He wants SONS, not SLAVES?

Because you can want one thing (all to be saved) but want something else more (willing sons, not robotic obedience).
