What the Bible says about

Gods Sovereignty


6/23

Job 42:2 I know that you can do allthings; no purpose of yours can be

thwarted.

Psalm 135:6 He does whatever hepleases in heaven and on earth, in theseas and all the ocean depths.

Isaiah 46:9 Remember what Iaccomplished in antiquity! Truly I amGod, I have no peer; I am God, and thereis none like me, 10 who announces theend from the beginning and revealsbeforehand what has not yet occurred,who says, My plan will be realized, I willaccomplish what I desire,

For he chose us in Christ before the

foundation of the world that we may be holy

and unblemished in his sight in love. He did

this by predestining us to adoption as hissons through Jesus Christ, according to the

pleasure of his will.

Ephesians 1:4-5

Proverbs 16:33

The lot is cast into the lap, but its everydecision is from the LORD.

10 And not only so, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one

man, our forefather Isaac,

11 though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad

in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works

but because of his call

12 she was told, The older will serve the younger.

13 As it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.

14 What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means!

15 For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will

have compassion on whom I have compassion.

16 So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has

mercy.

17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, For this very purpose I have raised youup, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed

in all the earth.

18 So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he

wills.

Romans 9:10-24


11/23

19 You will say to me then, Why does he still find fault? For who can resist

his will?20 But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say

to its molder, Why have you made me like this?

21 Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one

vessel for honored use and another for dishonorable use?

22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has

endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,23 in order to make known the riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which

he has prepared beforehand for glory

24 even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the

Gentiles?

Romans 9:10-24

What the Bible says about

mans responsibility


13/23

The end of the matter; all has been heard.

Fear God and keep his commandments,

for this is the whole duty of man. For Godwill bring every deed into judgment, with

every secret thing, whether good or evil.

Ecclesiastes 12:14


14/23

2 Corinthians 5:10

"For we must all appear before the

judgment seat of Christ, that each onemay be recompensed for his deeds in the

body, according to what he has done,

whether good or bad,"

Revelation 22:12

"Behold, I am coming quickly, and My

reward is with Me, to render to every manaccording to what he has done,"


15/23

Romans 10:11-13

For the scripture says, 'Everyone who

believes in him will not be put to shame.'

For there is no distinction between the

Jew and the Greek, for the same Lord is

Lord of all, who richly blesses all who callon him. For everyone who calls on the

name of the Lord will be saved.


16/23

16 For God so loved the world, that he gavehis only Son, that whoever believes in him

should not perish but have eternal life.

17 For God did not send his Son into theworld to condemn the world, but in order that

the world might be saved through him.

18 Whoever believes in him is not

condemned, but whoever does not believe iscondemned already, because he has not

believed in the name of the only Son of God.

John 3:16-18


17/23

2 Peter 3:9

The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise

as some count slowness, but is patient

toward you, not wishing that any should

perish, but that all should reachrepentance.


18/23

Both truths in one

sentence...

Philippians 2:12-13

12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have

always obeyed, so now, not only as in mypresence but much more in my absence,

work out your own salvation with fear and

trembling,

13 for it is God who works in you, both to

will and to work for his good pleasure.

John 6:44

No one can come to me unless theFather who sent me draws him. And Iwill raise him up on the last day.


22/23

6 Seek the LORD while he may be found;

call upon him while he is near;

7 let the wicked forsake his way,

and the unrighteous man his thoughts;

let him return to the LORD, that he may have

compassion on him,and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts,

neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

so are my ways higher than your ways

and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Isaiah 55:6-9
