What does the Bible say about the sovereignty of God?

The Bible portrays God's sovereignty as absolute, governing all aspects of creation according to His perfect will.

Scripture consistently affirms the sovereignty of God over all things, highlighting His control and authority. For instance, Ephesians 1:11 states that God works all things according to the counsel of His will. This sovereignty extends to the affairs of humanity, assuring believers that nothing occurs outside of God's divine plan. Understanding God's sovereignty is crucial for Christians, as it instills confidence in His providence, particularly in times of trial and uncertainty. Furthermore, recognizing God’s sovereignty allows believers to respond in faith, trusting that He is orchestrating all events for His glory and their ultimate good, as seen in Romans 8:28-30.

Ephesians 1:11, Romans 8:28-30

How do we know predestination is true?

Predestination is grounded in biblical teaching, particularly in passages like Ephesians 1:4-5, affirming God's eternal choice of certain individuals for salvation.

The doctrine of predestination is a key aspect of Reformed theology, affirmed by Scripture as an expression of God's sovereign grace. Ephesians 1:4-5 emphasizes that believers were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, indicating that salvation is not based on human merit but solely on God's purpose and grace. This teaching is further supported by Romans 8:29-30, where Paul explains that those whom God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son. Understanding predestination encourages humility and gratitude among believers, as it highlights that salvation is a divine gift, emphasizing God's initiative in calling and redeeming His people rather than any works they could perform.

Ephesians 1:4-5, Romans 8:29-30

Why is the doctrine of total depravity important for Christians?

Total depravity highlights the inherent sinfulness of humanity, illustrating the need for divine grace for salvation.

The doctrine of total depravity is foundational in understanding the human condition in relation to God's holiness. It teaches that every aspect of humanity is affected by sin, rendering individuals unable to achieve righteousness on their own (Romans 3:10-12). This crucial truth leads to the acknowledgment that human effort cannot secure salvation, necessitating reliance on God's grace alone. By recognizing our total inability to save ourselves, Christians can fully appreciate the depth of God's mercy and the significance of Christ's sacrificial work. Furthermore, this doctrine fuels a sense of urgency for evangelism, as it underscores the necessity of sharing the Gospel, which is the means by which God regenerates the heart and leads individuals to true repentance and faith.

Romans 3:10-12
