All Things For Good | Thomas Watson

Beskrivning

”All Things For Good” is a classic 17th-century Puritan book by Thomas Watson that explores the biblical promise that all things work for the good of those who love God, as stated in Romans 8:28. The book, originally titled ”A Divine Cordial,” explains how both good and bad experiences, such as suffering and temptation, ultimately serve God’s purpose by strengthening faith and drawing believers closer to Him. It provides theological insight and practical wisdom for those seeking to understand God’s providence and find comfort in trying circumstances.

The central text is Romans 8:28, ”And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose”.

The book emphasizes that God is in control and works through all events, both positive and negative, for the ultimate good of His people.

Watson argues that afflictions and difficulties are not random but are God-given ”medicine” to purge sin, cure spiritual diseases, and bring believers into conformity with Christ.
