This term can be understood both in a literal and metaphorical sense. In the Scriptures, drawing often signifies a spiritual or divine action, where God or Christ draws individuals to Himself. Biblical References: 1. Divine Drawing: One of the most significant references to drawing in the Bible is found in the Gospel of John. Jesus speaks of the divine action of drawing people to Himself: "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day" (<a href="/john/6-44.htm">John 6:44</a>). This verse highlights the necessity of God's initiative in the process of salvation, emphasizing that it is God who draws individuals to Christ. 2. The Cross as a Means of Drawing: Jesus also refers to His crucifixion as a means of drawing all people to Himself: "And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself" (<a href="/john/12-32.htm">John 12:32</a>). Here, the act of being "lifted up" on the cross is seen as a powerful attraction, drawing humanity to the redemptive work of Christ. 3. Drawing Water: In a more literal sense, drawing is mentioned in the context of drawing water, a common activity in biblical times. For instance, Rebekah is described as drawing water for Abraham's servant and his camels (<a href="/genesis/24-20.htm">Genesis 24:20</a>). This act of drawing water is often symbolic of service and hospitality. 4. Drawing Near to God: The concept of drawing near to God is a recurring theme in Scripture. James exhorts believers: "Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded" (<a href="/james/4-8.htm">James 4:8</a>). This passage underscores the reciprocal nature of the relationship between God and believers, where human initiative in seeking God is met with divine response. 5. Drawing the Sword: In a martial context, drawing is used to describe the act of unsheathing a weapon. For example, in the account of David and Goliath, David is described as drawing Goliath's sword to kill him (<a href="/1_samuel/17-51.htm">1 Samuel 17:51</a>). This action signifies readiness and the commencement of battle. Theological Implications: The concept of drawing in the Bible carries profound theological implications, particularly concerning the doctrine of salvation. The divine drawing by the Father underscores the grace and sovereignty of God in the salvation process. It affirms that human response to the Gospel is initiated by God's action. Furthermore, the drawing power of the cross highlights the centrality of Christ's sacrifice in the Christian faith, serving as the focal point of God's redemptive plan. In practical terms, the exhortation to draw near to God invites believers to pursue a closer relationship with Him, promising that such efforts will be met with divine presence and blessing. The imagery of drawing water and drawing the sword also enriches the biblical narrative, illustrating themes of service, readiness, and divine-human interaction.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
