But God...The Gospel in Two Words (Reflections Series)
Tony BennettPaperback 2017-02-01
Publisher Description
In God's world, nothing happens by chance. Many times in Scripture we see how God intervenes in the affairs of mankind, or, as Thomas Kempis put it, 'For man proposes, but God disposes.' The words 'but God' enshrine a recurring theme throughout the Scriptures of the gracious, merciful and sovereign ways in which God has intervened in the lives of men and women down the ages, and most especially in our salvation.
