God Rules Part 1b
October 22, 2022
The Bible teaches that pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. In our message today on Sound Doctrine we will see one of the greatest examples of that. Pastor Jeff Johnson shares from Daniel chapter 4 about the rise and fall of King Nebuchadnezzar, one of the most powerful rulers in human history. And it’s a great lesson to all of us about the great danger of pride and how God saves even the most unlikely people.

Today on Sound Doctrine pastor Jeff Johnson will take us to Romans chapter nine, which has often been at the center of many debates concerning God’s sovereignty and man’s free will.

It’s God’s mercy and grace that gives me hope for the whole world, Billy Graham once said. He was on to something. And he surely reflected God’s heart. But truth be told it’s a struggle to hold this view when things go wrong. We’ll get some help from Romans chapter nine – which raises the issue of the fairness of God reflected in the choices He makes.

We begin a new chapter in our study of Daniel today, and that’s chapter four. I’m sure you’ve heard some amazing testimonies over the years, but this one takes the cake. King Nebuchadnezzar would no doubt fall into the category of least likely to become a Christian. But God got ahold of his life. He’s still performing saving miracles like this today.
