Irresistible grace defines the doctrine that the call of God on the human heart will always result in that individual coming to faith in Christ and receiving eternal life. The concept is that the human will, in spite of the natural inclinations to resist God, in fact to hate God, will so be changed by the working of the Holy Spirit in the act of regeneration, that God’s grace will prevail over sin. The doctrine defines an important aspect of the entire redemptive program of God, of what grace is all about, of God’s sovereignty over Satan and evil, and of the eventual victory of Jesus Christ.
