The term "anywise" is an archaic English word meaning "in any way" or "by any means." While the word itself does not appear in the Berean Standard Bible , the concept it conveys is present throughout the Scriptures. The Bible frequently addresses the idea of God's sovereignty, human responsibility, and the various ways in which God's will is accomplished.

Divine Sovereignty and Human Responsibility

The Bible teaches that God is sovereign and His purposes will be fulfilled in anywise, regardless of human actions. In Isaiah 46:10 , God declares, "I declare the end from the beginning, and ancient times from what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and all My good pleasure I will accomplish.’" This verse underscores the certainty of God's plans, which will be achieved in anywise, despite human intentions or actions.

At the same time, Scripture emphasizes human responsibility and the call to obedience. In Philippians 2:12-13 , Paul writes, "Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence but now even more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose." Here, the interplay between divine sovereignty and human effort is evident, as believers are encouraged to act in accordance with God's will, knowing that He is at work in them in anywise.

God's Provision and Protection

The concept of "anywise" can also be seen in the assurance of God's provision and protection for His people. In Romans 8:28 , Paul assures believers, "And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose." This promise indicates that God will, in anywise, orchestrate circumstances for the ultimate good of His children, even when situations seem adverse.

Similarly, in Psalm 91:11-12 , the psalmist writes, "For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone." This passage reflects the belief that God's protection is comprehensive and unfailing, ensuring that His purposes are accomplished in anywise.

Moral and Ethical Conduct

The Bible also addresses the concept of "anywise" in the context of moral and ethical conduct. Believers are called to live in a manner that reflects God's holiness and righteousness. In 1 Thessalonians 5:22 , Paul exhorts, "Abstain from every form of evil." This directive implies that in anywise, Christians should avoid sin and pursue holiness, aligning their lives with God's standards.

Furthermore, in 1 Corinthians 10:31 , Paul instructs, "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." This comprehensive call to glorify God in anywise underscores the importance of intentionality in every aspect of life, ensuring that all actions reflect God's character and honor His name.

Conclusion

While the specific term "anywise" is not found in the Berean Standard Bible, the principles it embodies are woven throughout the biblical narrative. The Scriptures affirm God's sovereignty, human responsibility, divine provision, and the call to ethical living, all of which are accomplished in anywise according to God's perfect will and purpose.(adv.)
