How do we know the doctrine of divine sovereignty is true?

Answered in 2 sources

Divine sovereignty is affirmed in Scripture, illustrating that God orchestrates all events according to His purpose and pleasure, as seen in passages like Ephesians 1:11.

The doctrine of divine sovereignty holds that God is the ultimate authority over all creation and events in history. This belief is deeply rooted in Scripture, which states in Ephesians 1:11 that God works all things according to the counsel of His will. This affirms that nothing occurs outside of God’s sovereign control, including the salvation of His people. The consistent biblical narrative reveals God's active governance over both the macro and micro aspects of creation, ensuring His eternal purpose is accomplished. Therefore, acknowledging God's sovereignty reinforces our understanding of His character and His promise to guide and protect His people amid spiritual warfare.
