What is Providence?
by Derek Thomas
Summary
Few things distinguish Christian and secular worldviews with greater clarity than the doctrine of providence: that everything that happens is the outcome of the sovereign overruling of God—everything! Derek W.H. Thomas examines this truth by observing how the Bible explains the complex lives of men and women, and also by weighing opposing viewpoints, including Open Theism and Molinistic views of “middle knowledge.”
