Samuel Rutherford:
“God’s sovereignty is His divine prerogative to rule and reign over all creation. He exercises His sovereignty with perfect wisdom and justice, directing the course of history according to His eternal purposes. His sovereignty extends to all things, from the smallest detail to the grandest event, and nothing happens apart from His sovereign decree. In His sovereignty, He ordains both good and evil, blessing and trial, for His own glory and the accomplishment of His redemptive plan. As His creatures, we are called to trust in His sovereignty, knowing that He works all things together for our good and His glory.” (From “The Letters of Samuel Rutherford”)
