Sorry little fella for using your post to ask DJC49 a question, but I'm only just learning theologicals you know, and I wanted to know if this is an example of eisegesis, seeing as the three things mentioned are not mentioned anywhere in the text.
Of course, anyone can reply to the question, including yourself if you feel inclined.

All I have sought to do is INCLUDE the Lord in His work.

Thus no random reaction of just ANY indiscriminate mortal here taught in this verse.

But preordained, prearranged for the saving of His elect "Jailor."

God was there long before Paul and Silas came on scene. And as I said it is simply illustrating God at work in the lives of His people.

Your response to my post is a human reaction. You believe what you said is true. That is a human reaction.
Acts 16:29-31
"Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house."
No theological correctness in their response, was there? He asked what must I do... They told him what he must do.
Acts 16:32-34
"And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

Dang, this just ain't complicated enough.

Thus "human reaction" was brought about by divine hand.

"For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth"
