Part 2 - What Does It Mean That God Is Sovereign

Oct 2, 2026  •  Collin McGriff

God’s sovereignty means God is supreme. It does not automatically mean God causes or controls everything that happens.


Join us for Part Two of:

What Does It Mean That God Is Sovereign?


James protects God’s character by telling us not to attribute everything to Him.


James 1:13 says:

“Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God…”


Then James 1:16–17 warns us not to be deceived about the source of God’s activity:

“Do not err, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above…”


If our definition of sovereignty makes God the source behind everything, we have created a problem James does not create.
