The truth that keeps us steady!
Dear Friends,
In these stormy times, there is a truth that can keep us steady as
today’s attached devotional shows. May it enable you to stand firm in
the great storm of our time. God bless you!
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
Ephesians 1:11 (ESV)
11 In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will,
Matthew 10:29 (ESV)
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.
“Calvinists new and old, around the world, have been convinced biblically of this one crucial tenet of historic confessional Calvinism: God’s sovereignty over all ¾ life, death, pain, disasters, relationships, salvation, condemnation, the good things, the bad things, the big things, the little things, the in-between things, and all the things we don’t even know about or can’t even see ¾ over all. Simply put, we believe that God is God.” [Burk Parsons, “Calvinism Isn’t Enough,” Tabletalk, (June 2010, p. 21]
