I found this chart in my ESV Study Bible this morning while looking at verses on Definite Atonement. I found it to be very helpful in seeing the Sovereignty of God in salvation...limited to the book of Acts. Yes, this is a free advertisement for the ESV Study Bible...I highly recommend it...there are plenty more of these resources in this awesome study Bible, I pray that you would find this one as helpful as I have.
God's Sovereignty in Salvation as Seen in Acts
God ordained the cross
God calls, adds, and appoints many to eternal life
God gives faith and repentance; God cleanses and opens hearts
Acts 2:23 “Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God”
Acts 3:18 “what God foretold by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ would suffer, he thus fulfilled”
Acts 4:27–28 “there were gathered together . . . Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, to do whatever your hand . . . had predestined to take place”
Acts 2:39 “the promise is to . . . everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself”
Acts 2:41 “there were added that day about three thousand souls”
Acts 2:47 “the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved”
Acts 5:14 “believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women”
Acts 11:24 “a great many people were added to the Lord”
Acts 13:48 “as many as were appointed to eternal life believed”
