Hi Luke. While I suppose we probably agree on the essentials here, I'm wondering how you and others on AFF see the following passages:

John 6:37-39; John 6:44-45 and John 6:65.

There are some who interpret the word "draw" in John 6:44 as literally "drag." I don't think such an extreme understanding is necessary though that's how the Greek word is usually used. Do you see that the work of "coming to Jesus," in these passages anyhow, is a result of the workings of the Spirit of God (or the Father).

These passages from John are usually associated with the words of Paul in Romans 8:28-30.
