John Murray

John Murray was a significant theologian known for his teachings on predestination and divine providence. He emphasized that God's sovereignty governs every aspect of life, including salvation. Predestination, according to Murray, means that God has chosen certain individuals for salvation, reflecting His mercy and purpose. Providence refers to God's ongoing guidance and care for creation, ensuring that all events unfold according to His will. Murray's ideas underscore the relationship between God’s freedom in choosing and human responsibility, stressing that while God is in control, individuals also play a role in responding to His grace.
