As usual Philip@ReformedVoices' never lets down the quality of the stuff he posts. Here we have a very perceptive quote from John Piper concerning the Sovereignty of God. A quote that reminded me of a certain cutting message from Jim McClarty. [Quote and Video below]
John Piper
"God is not like a firefighter who gets calls to show up at calamities when the damage is already happening. He is more like a surgeon who plans the cutting he must do and plans it for good purposes. Without the confidence that God rules over the beginning of our troubles, it is hard to believe that He could rule over their end. If we deny God His power and wisdom to govern the arrival of our pain, why should we think we can trust Him with its departure?"
This is a must read book for anyone and everyone who loves the Gospel of Jesus Christ. John MacArthur writes so candidly about the truth of the Cross and the message of the Kingdom of God. Indeed the true Gospel of Scripture is Hard to Believe, unlike the modern "gospel" which appeals to easy emotional believism.
