Are God’s Providence and God’s Sovereignty the Same? // Ask Pastor John
A video published by Desiring God on October 17th, 2019
God’s sovereignty is his right and power to do whatever he pleases. God’s providence is his wise and purposeful sovereignty.
This summer, you, Pastor John, finished up a book on the providence of God, a six-hundred-page book coming out in a little over a year from now. We talked about it recently in episode 1371. Sometimes I say it’s a book about the sovereignty of God, which leads to a question from Massiel in the Dominican Republic.
“Hello, Pastor John! I was looking for definitions on the sovereignty of God and the providence of God, and couldn’t really find one that would make me understand the difference between the two terms. Could you please explain it, Pastor John? Are they synonyms? How would you define each glorious truth?”
