Hello everyone
My name is Emeodi chijioke
Today is the 3rd day of may 2021
I'm glad to be part of the Bible readers community.
I will be sharing with the topic of today which says " is a man's fate under the control of God? Part 1
God is control of the universe. This means that He has an absolute right to govern His creation as He pleases. God has perfect knowledge and perfect power with which He controls everything.
Scripture emphasizes the sovereignty of God.
All Things Are In His Control
The Bible makes it clear that all things are under God's control. The psalmist wrote.
Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. For the LORD is the great God, the great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land (Psalm 95:1-5).
Although the world is in a seemingly chaotic state today, God is still in control of events.
The Sovereignty Of God Is A Reasonable Truth
Not only is the absolute sovereignty of God a Scriptural truth, it is also a necessary deduction of any proper concept of God. If things are not regulated by God, but merely occur by blind chance, then chance is superior to God. Any limitation of God's sovereign control causes more problems than it solves.
The idea of God's absolute sovereignty or control is one of the central truths of Scripture. The Bible is clear that God is in control of all things. Scripture never teaches that things occur by fate or blind chance.
In summary,
The study of the sovereignty of God is a difficult truth to understand. It is hard to grasp how can be in absolute control and, at the same time, how humans can make legitimate choices. Yet this is the clear teaching of the Bible. This is one area that Scripture never tries to reconcile. Believers, therefore, should accept the fact that God's sovereignty and human responsibility are both true even though it cannot be understood how they work together.
