The general doctrine of providence derives support from sources independent of Divine revelation. It is another term for the government of God, by which all events are made to concur with His wise and holy purposes. Look at providence —

1. In the mode of its operations.

2. In the vastness of its range.

3. In the punishment of the wicked.

4. In its aspect on the Church.The doctrine of Divine providence is full of consolation. All must be right when God controls and reigns over all.

(John George.)
