Jn 10:26,11,15
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
As he told some of these Jews, that they did not believe, because they were not of his sheep, this certainly implies that all his sheep, for whom lie laid down his life Vs 11,15, are brought to believe in him
Its crystal clear that Christ associates His death with coming to believe in Him, hence everyone for whom He died will be given , caused to believe in Him Phil 1:29
29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
When its all said and done, there's no such thing scripturally, Christ dying for one, and they not coming to believe in Him, not coming to hear His voice and following Him !
