Irresistible grace
Irresistible grace ( or efficacious grace ) is a doctrine in Christian theology particularly associated with Calvinism , which teaches that the saving grace of God is effectually applied to those whom He has determined to save ( the elect ) and , in God's timing , overcomes their resistance to obeying the call of the gospel , bringing them to faith in Christ .
