The Privilege of Knowing God Truly
The greatest privilege for humans is the opportunity to know God, but we neither deem this to be a privilege nor do we find this to be something for which our hearts should yearn. This is on account of two factors: the first is that we have a low view of God, and the second […]
The Sovereignty of God
The sovereignty of God means that God has complete and perfect authority over His creation. Our God is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. R.C. Sproul once noted that “If God is not sovereign, God is not God.” The sovereignty of God is the very Godness of God. His sovereignty is what makes Him […]
The Eternality and Aseity of God
Aseity means that God is sufficient for Himself and that He is autonomous to the extent of complete and perfect independence.

Kiss The Son: Psalm 2:10-12
Present-day kings of the earth should not be thought to be heads of state. That may have been true in times past, but power is rarely in their hands now.
