What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty in the crucifixion?

Scripture reveals that the crucifixion of Christ was ordained by God, fulfilling His eternal plans. In Acts 2:23, Peter asserts that Jesus was delivered up by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God. This reveals not only God's sovereignty but also His purpose in redemption. Jesus' death was not an afterthought or a reactive measure, but rather it was the culmination of God's purpose to redeem His people. As the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8), Christ's sacrifice was an essential part of God’s eternal decree for salvation, demonstrating His sovereignty and control over all human events.
