ACTS 14:27 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.”
On arrival, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles — the report (apangello) to the assembled church demonstrates accountability to the sending community. The phrase opened the door of faith (thyra pisteos) uses the image of access or opportunity, suggesting God sovereignly created receptivity among pagans. The explicit credit to God (all that God had done through them) maintains proper theological attribution.
