How can it be true that God is absolutely
sovereign over everything and at the same time
how can it be true that we have free wills?
3
He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven
and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold
back his hand or say to him "What have you
done?" Daniel 435
4
What I have said, that I will bring about what I
have planned, that I will do. Isaiah 4611
5
Our God is in heaven he does whatever pleases
him. Psalm 1153

For God so loved the world that he gave his one
and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall
not perish but have eternal life. John 316

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you
and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in
heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For
my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew
1128-30

FOUR PERSPECTIVES I EMBRACE IN THE SOVEREIGNTY
FREE WILL ISSUE
1. I am glad someone is in charge. I am glad
that someone is God.
And we know that in all things God works for the
good of those who love him, who have been called
according to his purpose. Romans 828 (p. 1043)

FOUR PERSPECTIVES I EMBRACE IN THE SOVEREIGNTY
FREE WILL ISSUE
1. I am glad someone is in charge. I am glad
that someone is God.
2. I realize that my personal free will is
limited.
3. I know that I am responsible for my
decisions and actions.
4. This Sovereignty Free Will issue is one I
may never understand.

Ruth 21-23
11
When an alien lives with you in your land, do
not mistreat him. The alien living with you must
be treated as one of your native-born. Love him
as yourself, for you were aliens in Egypt. I am
the LORD your God. Leviticus 1933-34

Ruth 21-23

Even though the fig trees have no
blossoms,      and there are no grapes on the
vines   even though the olive crop
fails,      and the fields lie empty and
barren   even though the flocks die in the
fields,      and the cattle barns are
empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord!      I
will be joyful in the God of my salvation!  The
Sovereign Lord is my strength! Habakkuk 317-19
