Scripture makes it clear that salvation if of the Lord- every aspect of it- and that those whom the Lord has foreknown He has predestined, He does indeed call and justify, and whom He justifies, He will indeed someday glorify. Salvation is presented in scripture as completed from God's perspective. Our role is faithfulness and obedience to the Lord. If we're not faithful to evangelize and call people to repentance, that is sin on our part. But the eternal destiny of a soul is in God's hands, not ours. It is His job to convert sinners. Our is simply to be faithful.
From "Fools Gold" by John MacArthur.
