A Pilgrimage through the Institutes of the Christian Religion 1.5.8: God's Providence
In this deep dive into John Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion, we explore the profound truths of God’s providence, wisdom, and sovereignty. From the humbling of the proud to the exaltation of the weak, this video unpacks biblical examples and theological insights that reveal God’s perfect governance over all creation.
This section of Calvin’s Institutes demonstrates how:
God’s power and mercy are displayed in unexpected rescues (Exodus 14, Daniel 6, Acts 12).
Human pride and arrogance are shattered instantly by His mighty hand (Exodus 15:11, Esther 7, Psalm 2:1-4).
The poor and needy are exalted while the strong and many are brought low (1 Samuel 2:7-8, Psalm 113:7-8).
His divine wisdom disrupts worldly knowledge and shows perfect order in all His actions (1 Corinthians 1:19-20, Ecclesiastes 3:1, Galatians 4:4-5).
We also examine the broader theological implications, such as:
How creation, redemption, and God’s timing reveal His perfect wisdom (Psalm 104:24, Romans 8:28, Genesis 50:20).
Why so many remain blind to God’s glory, despite His clear displays of power and providence (Romans 1:18-21, 1 Corinthians 2:14).
The ultimate rescue of humanity in Christ’s atonement and resurrection (Colossians 2:15, 1 Corinthians 1:23-24).
This video doesn’t just present doctrine; it offers a worshipful reflection on the sovereign God who humbles nations, exalts the lowly, and works all things for His glory and His people’s good.
