The Sovereignty of God

God had one Son (Jesus) and He called His Son to be a preacher and a Bible teacher. In Jesus's first sermon, the topic was the gospel or the "good news." The response, however, to Christ's first sermon was not good; it was hostile and violent. Why? Because in explaining the gospel message Jesus declared that God is sovereign. The sovereignty of God is the most offensive doctrine in the Bible, and it still produces hostile reactions in rebellious hearts today. In this sermon, learn what the sovereignty of God is and how it applies to everyday life. Our Scripture focus will be Luke 4:22-30. (From the series The Gospel of Luke, a verse-by-verse exposition of the third gospel.)
