The God Who Decrees

February 28, 2016 ()

Series:

God's decree is effective, eternal, not based on foreknowledge, and includes every single detail. The Scriptures are clear on these points yet raise in our minds serious questions? Does God really ordain all that comes to pass, including evil? Does God destine some people for hell? How can we be responsible? These are important questions to consider as we grow in our knowledge of God.



The Doctrine of God

The Doctrine of God series is not your typical look through the attributes of God. Certainly that is a worthy and lofty goal. In this series, however, we look at God in action. How God works and what he does. We look at the God who creates, the God who decrees, upholds, and works miracles. Certainly when we see God in action we marvel at his majesty, wisdom and power. When we see God for who he is we are humbled, we are laid bare, and we worship him as he alone is worthy of all worship and praise.
