Does God Control Everything? Sovereignty vs. Free Will Explained
If God is truly in control of every molecule in the universe, are we just living out a pre-written script? Or does our choice to follow Him actually matter?
In this video, we dive into the "Divine Paradox"—the tension between God’s absolute sovereignty and our genuine human responsibility. We explore how the Bible balances these two seemingly contradictory truths without compromising either. Whether you're struggling with the idea of predestination or wondering if your prayers change things, this deep dive provides a framework for understanding how God's plan and your choices work together.
Key Takeaways:
The Definition of Sovereignty: Understanding God’s "all-encompassing" rule over creation.
The Reality of Choice: Why the Bible holds us accountable for our decisions.
Compatible vs. Incompatible: Exploring the theological views on how these two forces coexist.
The Purpose of Prayer: If God is sovereign, why bother asking for anything?
Finding Peace in the Paradox: Moving from intellectual confusion to spiritual trust.
