God is sovereign. ( Hebrews 7 v 25 )

Writing on the author of the book of Kings, John Olley, comments,''The Kings writer repeatedly reminds his readers, that it is Yahweh (God ) who is sovereign ; His word is not thwarted''. We ask sometimes ,who is in charge?, well the Christians answer is God,it is a must be statement of faith,for it raises many questions,I can hear people say,if God is sovereign ,why,this? and indeed why that?,look at history the awful things that have happened , the disease,wars, the awful tragedies. Then there are the personal tragedies,,we all have them ,or why did He create devil?.why, why, why. Now let us consider humanity, Adam and Eve,God made them and they were perfect, but would they remain perfect?.So God gave them a choice, and He did not interfere with that choice,they could obey or disobey, God had told them,the consequence's of disobedience. of making the wrong choice.In spite of this they made the wrong choice. And from then it was down hill all the way, but still God is sovereign,there are two two destructive forces in the world, sin and Satan,yet God is still sovereign,    that is the good news,and through His Son,He devised a way in which we can be forgiven, set free,and assured of a home in heaven.
