    Does God govern all things according to his will or chance?  In the Hymn "God moves in Mysterious Ways" by William Cowper He writes: "Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust him for his grace. Behind a frowning providence, He hides a smiling face." God executes his will in two ways, first through his work of creation and second through his work of providence. Int today's episode we will look at the long lost doctrine of God's providence.

    God executes his will in two ways, first through his work of creation and second through his work of providence. The Baptist Catechism states: Q. 13. What is the work of creation? A. The work of creation is God's making all things of nothing, by the Word of His power, in the space of six days, and all very good. (Gen. 1:1; Heb. 11:3; Ex. 20:11; Gen. 1:31)

    If someone were to ask you what is the trinity? how would you respond? Describing the doctrine of the trinity is like walking a tight rope. One wrong statement and you may be entering into an ancient heresy. Though we want to be careful, the trinity is a watershed doctrine that is vital to the Christian life and salvation.

    Can we really rely on scripture? Does the church or tradition have just as much authority as Scripture? Can we rely on secular resources as well as scripture? The sufficiency of scripture is the litmus test that reveals just how much people trust the word of God. There are "christians" who uphold the beliefs of scripture's authority, inspiration, and inerrancy yet in practice scripture is not the most sufficient source of truth for them.
