How do we know that God allows sin for a greater purpose?

Answered in 1 source

Acts 4:26-28 exemplifies how God utilizes human sin to fulfill His sovereign plan.

The Bible clarifies that while God is not the author of sin, He sovereignly allows it to occur for the accomplishment of His greater purposes. Acts 4:26-28 highlights this when it talks about Herod, Pontius Pilate, and others coming together 'to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.' This shows that even through human wickedness, God's plan is fulfilled, demonstrating His complete sovereignty.
