Everyone whom my Father gives me. The Bible shows us that a certain type of person responds to the Good News. People who will respond are called "my people" by God before they confess him (Acts 18:9-11). God's salvation must be understood in this way. Jesus followed a predetermined set of actions to induce men to come to him. Those who do not respond, are not the Father's people. Everyone who does respond will be accepted; no one will be turned away! Lipscomb says: "God has called and predestinated to eternal life all willing to receive him."
