Richard Baxter:
“God’s sovereignty is the foundation of His rule and reign over all creation. He is the Supreme Ruler, whose authority extends over every aspect of existence. His sovereignty is not limited by time or circumstance but encompasses all things past, present, and future. He governs the affairs of the world with perfect wisdom and justice, directing the course of history according to His eternal purposes. In His sovereignty, He ordains the rise and fall of nations, the events of individuals’ lives, and the outworking of His redemptive plan. As His creatures, we are called to acknowledge His sovereignty with reverence and awe, submitting ourselves to His righteous rule and trusting in His unfailing providence.” (From “The Practical Works of Richard Baxter”)
