What Does it Mean that God is Sovereign?

From the first page of the Bible, we encounter a God who is sovereign. By His power and authority, He created the world and governs it to accomplish His plans. But is God sovereign over everything that happens—even our salvation? And if He is, do our choices even matter?

In this booklet, Dr. R.C. Sproul demonstrates that the sovereignty of God extends to all things, from creation to redemption. Rather than erasing our responsibility, God’s absolute power and complete authority are what enable us to know Him, obey His Word, and tell others about His saving grace.

The Crucial Questions booklet series by Dr. R.C. Sproul offers succinct answers to important questions often asked by Christians and thoughtful inquirers.
