Week Ten - Day Two: End of Day

So that you won’t be tempted to reject the Westminster Confession without ever having read it, let me show the whole section that Dr. Sproul quoted from.

“God, from all eternity, did, by the most wise and holy counsel of His own will, freely, and unchangeably ordain whatsoever comes to pass: yet so, as thereby neither is God the author of sin; nor is violence offered to the will of the creatures; nor is the liberty or contingency of second causes taken away, but rather established.”

Dr. Sproul summarizes: “Note that, while it affirms God’s sovereignty over all things, the Confession also asserts that God does not do evil or violate human freedom. Human freedom and evil are under God’s sovereignty.”

  1. Survey your day today. Thank God for His sovereign activity.
  2. End your day by praying this: “Guide us waking, O Lord, and guard us sleeping; that awake we may watch with Christ, and asleep we may rest in peace.”
  3. Rest! God is in control!
  4. Lights out!
