The Sovereignty of God

To declare that God is sovereign is to affirm that whatever takes place in time is merely the outworking of that which He decreed in eternity, according to A.W. Pink. "Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and the earth is Thine: Thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and Thou art exalted as head above all" (1 Chronicles 29:11).

This well-researched and scriptural work by the author demonstrates God's sovereignty in various aspects:

1. The delegation of His power to others
2. The exercise of His mercy
3. The exercise of His love
4. The exercise of His grace
5. The creation of the universe
6. The salvation of souls

Pink's prayer was that this book would lead to the "enlightening of many more of His own, to the 'praise of the glory of His grace,' and a clearer apprehension of the majesty of God and His sovereign mercy."

The sovereignty of God, as described in this work, affirms that all that transpires in the temporal realm is the outworking of His eternal decrees. This principle is firmly grounded in the scriptural declaration that "Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and the earth is Thine: Thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and Thou art exalted as head above all" (1 Chronicles 29:11).

The author's comprehensive examination of God's sovereignty extends to various domains, including the delegation of His power to others, the exercise of His mercy, love, and grace, the creation of the universe, and the salvation of souls. This multi-faceted exploration aims to enlighten and deepen the reader's understanding of the majesty of God and His sovereign control over all things.

At the heart of the author's desire is the hope that this work would lead to a greater appreciation of God's grace and a clearer apprehension of His sovereignty. The prayer is that through this book, many more of God's own people would be enlightened and come to a deeper understanding of the profound truth that all things are under the sovereign rule of the Almighty.
