And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the Word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.
The common teaching today, since most Evangelical teaching is not Biblical exposition, is that all who decide in and of themselves to believe are appointed to Eternal life. That is wrong! We see it specifically here; it is those and only those who initially are appointed to Eternal life that end up with genuine belief or faith.
