Romans 10 Explains a lot
9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus
as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for
with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and
with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “
Whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.”

"His own free will"??
John 12:32 "
I will DRAW ALL mankind unto me" -- that is supernatural. God's drawing fully enables the choice to accept the Gospel that depravity disables.
Your quotes of "man" as compared to the Bible - do not hold up.
