Exploring the Absence of Tertiary Causes in the Westminster Confession of Faith:

[Josheb]

To demonstrate the logical connection between tertiary causation...

Sophistry.

Tertiary causation is nothing more than the contingencies of secondary causes. As such they are covered in the WCF at Article 3.1.

Here is a visual that might help explain this understanding:

Yes, God made all things and upholds all things by the word of His power, (Heb. 1: 3)

And within the `upholding,` creation is winding down, gradually decaying, (it has a use by date). And whatever man or animal or mountains or weather (etc) does it is all heading in the same decaying direction. People can make all sorts of decisions but is does not affect the final outcome for man is on a collision course with God`s judgment.

The video seems to think that because you or I make decisions then that would change the world and its outcome.

What will happen will happen. God made it happen —every detail of it, and every major and final outcome. And our decisions is one of the ways God makes it happen.
