What does the Bible say about being ordained to eternal life?

Answered in 5 sources

The Bible teaches that those ordained to eternal life will believe the gospel, highlighting God's sovereignty in salvation.

In Acts 13:48, it states that as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. This suggests that belief in the gospel is not merely an act of human will but a work of divine appointment. The term 'ordained' indicates that God has determined and appointed certain individuals to believe and be saved. This aligns with the overarching biblical theme that our salvation is solely due to the sovereign grace of God. It emphasizes the notion that God orchestrates salvation, from election to justification.
