The Sovereignty of God
This article explains the biblical doctrine that God is supreme in power, authority, and governance over all creation. Nothing happens outside of His will, control, and purpose. He reigns over the heavens, the earth, the nations, the affairs of men, and every detail of individual lives. His sovereignty is absolute, unchallenged, and unchallengeable. This doctrine provides comfort to believers, terror to the wicked, and glory to God alone.
The Trinity (One God in Three Persons) – Expanded Article
This article expands upon the biblical doctrine of the Trinity, which teaches that there is one God eternally existing in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person is fully and equally God, yet there are not three gods but one God. The Trinity is not a contradiction but a mystery revealed in Scripture. It is the foundation of all Christian theology, the framework for understanding salvation, and the pattern for worship. Denial of the Trinity is denial of the God of the Bible.
The Wrath of God
This article explains the biblical doctrine that God's wrath is His holy and just response to sin. It is not an uncontrolled rage but a settled, righteous anger against evil. God's wrath is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men. It is a necessary aspect of His holiness and justice. The wrath of God is both present (manifested in conscience, judgment, and the cross) and future (the final judgment). The cross is the great demonstration of God's wrath against sin, where it was poured out on Christ as the substitute for sinners. Those who reject Christ remain under His wrath.
Trinity
This article explains the biblical doctrine that there is one God, eternally existing in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person is fully and equally God, yet there is only one God. This truth is not explicitly spelled out in a single verse but is derived from the whole counsel of Scripture.
