"In whom we also have been chosen to an inheritance, being
predestinated according to the purpose of the One working all
things according to the counsel of His will" (Ephesians 1:11)
Zanchius (1516-1590) created his age-enduring classic in response
to the challenges of those who persisted in charging God with being
the Author of sin because He says in the Scriptures that He
predestinated all things that come to pass. His answer is
irrefutable.
The first forty-two pages describes God as He is revealed in His
holy Word. He is all-wise and all-powerful. He is perfect and
