We continue to look into the Doctrines of Grace tonight and will begin our study on the doctrine of Election. The first thing I want to do, and this will be the message tonight, is to look at God's Decree. --The Lord God is sovereign, and does as He pleases, whenever He pleases. Any right view of salvation, must take that as the overarching theme. Berkoff said, --God- has sovereignly determined from all eternity whatsoever will come to pass, and works His sovereign will in His entire creation, both natural and spiritual, according to His pre-determined plan.-
