Yes it does make them believe. And when Christ gives repentance, it causes them to repent Acts 5:31 31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. The word repentance here and in Acts 11:18 is metanoia ...

Its all of God, a person believes because its been given to them for Christs Sake Phil 1:29 29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; Paul also understood this when he told the Philippian Jailor Acts 16:31 31 And they...
