Sovereignty of God in Christianity

  • Christianity

In Christianity, the sovereignty of God is the right of God to exercise ruling power over creation. The term can also refer to how God exercises that power. Christian views differ, particularly over the idea that God has imposed limitations on himself. Discussion of God's sovereignty and human free will is central to questions about whether human choice is meaningful.
