The Sovereignty of God. Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.The Sovereignty of God

Who is regulating affairs on this earth today-God, or the Devil? That God reigns supreme in Heaven, is generally conceded; that He does so over this world, is almost universally denied-if not directly, then indirectly. More and more are men in their philosophizing and theorizing, relegating God to the background. Take the material realm. Not only is it denied that God created everything, by personal and direct action, but few believe that He has any immediate concern in regulating the works of His own hands. Everything is supposed to be ordered according to the (impersonal and abstract) "laws of Nature". Thus is the Creator banished from His own creation. Therefore we need not be surprised that men, in their degrading conceptions, exclude Him from the realm of human affairs.

Arthur W. Pink (1886-1952) was an English theologian and biblical expositor associated with Reformed theology. His writings, including The Attributes of God, The Sovereignty of God, and his numerous studies of Scripture, are noted for their doctrinal focus, clarity of exposition, and emphasis on the nature and purposes of God. Pink's work continues to be read within evangelical and Reformed traditions.
