I personally believe this.
Ephesians 2:8-10 NKJV
[8] For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that
not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, [9] not of works, lest anyone
should boast. [10] For we are His workmanship, created in Christ
Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that
we should walk in them.
It’s all about God drawing us to Himself, He chases us down urges us to seek
Him.
Some may then reject that calling but even then He continues to chase us down
encouraging, calling, drawing us near to Him. Have you ever heard testimonies
of people who say that everyone they met seemed to be a Christian and seemed to
have a word just for them!
After all that it is still possible to reject God time and time again, whose hearts
become increasingly hardened and for those that do, there may come a
time when God stops calling them. Instead He hardens their heart for them
and allows them to be judged and given up to their own sin.
There are also people whose hearts are hardened by God in other ways
like Pharoah with Moses, when he refused to let the people go.
It all points us to grace, without grace without God drawing us to
Himself, we would never chose God, even with God’s intervention we
still have a choice to make. Woe betide anyone who rejects that calling.
Exodus 7:1-5 NKJV
[1] So the LORD said to Moses: "See, I have made you as God to
Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet. [2] You
shall speak all that I command you. And Aaron your brother shall
tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land.
[3] And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply My signs and My
wonders in the land of Egypt. [4] But Pharaoh will not heed you, so
that I may lay My hand on Egypt and bring My armies and My people,
the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
[5] And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch
out My hand on Egypt and bring out the children of Israel from among them."
Romans 1:22-32 NKJV
[22] Professing to be wise, they became fools,
[23] and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image
made like corruptible man-and birds and four-footed animals and
creeping things.
[24] Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts
of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
[25] who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped
and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed
forever. Amen.
[26] For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even
their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
[27] Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman,
burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing
what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their
error which was due.
[28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge,
God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which
are not fitting; [29] being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual
immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy,
murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
[30] backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of
evil things, disobedient to parents, [31] undiscerning, untrustworthy,
unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; [32] who, knowing the righteous
judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving
of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
