Is every person's existence a sovereign act of God?
Yes. The sovereign God supernaturally predetermines which sperm fertilizes which ova, so every one of the billions of people on the planet is a sovereign act of God. This truth is presented as something to believe more and more, not merely a biological accident.
Les explains that the sovereign God supernaturally predetermines which sperm fertilizes which ova. He calls this mind-boggling when considering the billions of people on the planet, and affirms that every one of them is a sovereign act of God—a truth he says he is believing more and more. He applies the same sovereignty to everyday experience, thanking God every morning and recalling all that had to transpire for his wife and him to cross paths, fall in love, and spend 43 years together. He calls that an act of God, absolutely, and says it is not just for the two of us but for most of you, since people can look back and say it was a miracle that husband and wife got together. He warns never to sell short the sovereignty of God, and says it was only by His grace that He reached down and chose us. To the unbeliever, he says not to worry about whether you are chosen; believe the gospel, and once you believe, God will move in grace and show these truths little by little.
