How does God's sovereignty relate to Jesus' crucifixion?

Answered in 1 source

God's sovereignty ensured that the crucifixion of Jesus was predetermined and fulfilled His eternal purpose.

Acts 2:23 speaks to this sovereignty, stating that Jesus was delivered 'by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God.' This indicates that every detail of His death was part of God's eternal plan, ensuring that salvation would be accomplished through His sacrifice. The crucifixion was not a mere accident or result of human actions; it was ordained by God to fulfill the Scriptures and provide for our redemption. Understanding this helps us grasp the depth of God's sovereign grace, as He orchestrates all events in history according to His will.
