View All Lessons

In our lesson today, we look at two Questions that touch on God’s plan. As we’ll see, the Bible teaches us that God has a plan that includes all things that take place throughout this universe. Listen to Question 7 of the Shorter Catechism: “What are the decrees of God?—The decrees of God are, his eternal purpose, according to the counsel of his will, whereby, for his own glory, he hath foreordained whatsoever comes to pass.”
