Last week our episode dealt with why GOD created.  As we looked at the Word of GOD we discovered it was that the FATHER would exalt HIS SON!  GOD the FATHER created everything for HIS SON!  As we move to this episode, we can look through the lens of GOD'S sovereignty in relation to why HE created.  It is through this we can see why GOD would create and ordain.  We can see why HE declared the end from the beginning! We can see Genesis 1:1 to Revelation 22 and know the FATHER loves HIS SON...and HE loves us that we may partake in this union.

We used a book, "The Sovereignty of God" by A W Pink, more specifically chapter ten.  Here are several bullet points which may help you as you think of your attitude toward a sovereign GOD.  

·      Chapter 10 from A.W. Pink’s book:

What should our attitude be toward the supreme sovereign? 

o   One of godly fear

Prov. 1:7; Phil. 2:12; Ps. 103:13; Isa. 66:2; 1 Pet. 2:17

o   One of implicit obedience

Ps. 119:36, 133

o   One of entire resignation

Mt. 6:10; 1 Sam. 3:18; Job 1:21; Jam. 4:13-15

o   One of deep thankfulness and joy

Ps. 103:1; Eph. 5:20; Rom. 8:28; Phil. 4:4; Ps. 40:8

One of adoring worship 


Finally, we look at a couple of questions which can be difficult.  But, we must not resign but dive deeper in prayer and study!

Grace and peace saints.
