John 10 proves it so, parables (illustrations) people will never understand, unless they are plainly told the meaning by Christ, note v6. even His disciples had to ask them what they meant, only then would he explain, but only to them the true meaning, such as Matthew 13:36.

1 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5 Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.” 6 Jesus used this illustration, but they did not understand the things which He spoke to them.

 

If people dont understand the gospel, they will never believe in Christ, it will just be foolishness to them. The parables describe the kingdom of God in illustrations.
After the resurrection this verse was written, those who are perishing versus those saved by the power of God. You, me, anyone who are being saved, it is the power of God. That means born again, you can not see or perceive Christ or the kingdom unless your first born of God. You dont believe and then get born again by God. You believe because He made you alive so that you could see.
1 Corinthians 1:18
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

That word see there means perceive, so you can not perceive who Christ is unless born again first.
'See' there does not mean enter. That is how so very basic it is. If you cant know Christ as God come in the flesh, then you can never be saved.
