They judged themselves, Paul says. He didn't judge them; he merely observed their rejection of the Word of God. It is true that only those appointed to eternal life believed (v48). But it is also true that none believed without the Word (Rom. 10:17). And how did Paul know who was appointed to eternal life? It was those who begged that the Word be preached to them (v42) and who glorified the Word (v48). Let us not miss this! Lord, help me to be your instrument by which the Word may spread throughout our region and the world.
