Providence
“God the good Creator of all things, in His infinite power and wisdom does uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence…” So begins the fifth chapter of both the Westminster Confession of Faith and the London Baptist Confession of 1689. This doctrine of providence, far from being an abstract and distant truth, is both a great mystery and a deep comfort. It is unfathomable how God can govern all His creatures to accomplish His ends and yet it provides immense assurance for the Christian to know that events are in God’s hands. This profound mystery and comfort can be seen in the crucifixion of the Son of God – a horrible and unjust act that was nevertheless part of "whatever [God's] hand and plan had predestined to take place."
The 2014 Princeton Regional Conference on Reformed Theology aims to examine some of the Bible’s teaching on this important subject. God is not distant and uninvolved, nor can He be confused with His creation. His relationship to the world is clearly shown in the Bible’s teaching on providence. And it is our conviction that the doctrine of providence helps us understand God’s sovereignty and power and, in response to this mystery and comfort, to respond in trust and praise.
