Subject: By Purpose, By Plan, and By Design |
Bible Note: "It belongs to the perfection of God to have a purpose, a design. You cannot think of God apart from His purposes, His choices, His decrees, His decisions. You can’t think of God apart from the plan of God anymore than you can think of the sun without its heat and its light. God does not rule this universe by whim or caprice. He does not do it opportunistically or adventitiously. But God does it by purpose, by plan, and by design. God has a plan. It belongs, I say, to the perfection of God that He have a plan. It belongs to the sovereignty of God that He executes that plan. God sees it through no matter what, no matter when, no matter how, no matter the obstacles, no matter what occasion may arise, no matter what enemy may intervene or may interpose, God carries that plan through!" --W. A. Criswell (1955) |
