Quotes about Decrees

All the LORD'S ways show faithful love and truth to those who keep His covenant and decrees. Psalm 25:10

Properties of divine decrees Let us now consider some of the properties of the divine decrees. First, they are eternal. To suppose any of them to be made in time is to suppose that some new occasion has occurred; some unforeseen event or combination of circumstances has arisen, which has induced the Most High to form a new resolution. This would argue that the knowledge of the Deity is limited, and that He is growing wiser in the progress of time—which would be horrible blasphemy.
- AW Pink

- AW Pink

- Alan Hirsch

- Jerry Bridges
God notices every one of us; there is not a sparrow or a worm that continues to live apart from His decrees.
- Charles Spurgeon
