I think so.
The Arminian "drawing to make a choice" thing (perhaps the wrong choice) seems to go against God's character and ability to save to the uttermost.
Not to mention going against the meaning of "draw"....
"Drawing" is inherently efficacious. If something doesn't come, then you can't say it was "drawn".
If a band plays while a crowd walks past it and ignores it, you can't say they "drew a crowd".
If you pull on your sword and it doesn't come out of its sheath, you can't say you "drew" it.
If you need air but your diaphragm isn't working, you can't say you "drew a breath".
And so on.
I don't know if you've seen this list I've compiled over the years....

It always means, "draw" or "drag".
