Is everything ordered according to the impersonal and abstract “laws of nature” or to the One that created all things? We only have one source to establish a matter in an absolute way, and that source is the Bible. In a day of “higher learning” and “scientific wisdom” for one to call the Bible into an argument as a means of settlement is to make himself liable to fanaticism or outdated. Throw the Bible out and you have no means to establish a matter, therefore no absolutes. Isn’t that where we are as a society? There is nothing really for sure; all is theory and theories change. What has this superior intelligent age developed but a confused unstable machine running full steam out of control? We have a society that denies the control of a Sovereign Creator and relegates its control to itself and declares its own sovereignty and yet is in a super state of confusion and chaos due to its obvious lack of control. I personally am more comfortable with the “outdated principle” (the Bible) of establishing a matter. I believe the book of God answers to everything from the fall of a sparrow to the fall of a monarch. I believe that as scripture affirms “God works all things after the counsel of His own will.” It may be too simple for some, but it’s very reasonable to me, that all things pertaining to time and the salvation of His people are working precisely “according to the eternal purpose which He purposed in Jesus Christ our Lord.” In ancient history there was one of the greatest of the world’s monarchs, a staunch advocate of “higher learning” and “scientific principles” namely Nebuchadnezzar. He refused to acknowledge God as the supreme controller of the affairs of men. He exalted himself in the place of the most high and filled his heart with pride. One day when he gloried as though he had no one to answer to but himself, God brought him down. Jehovah took his mind from him and gave him the sense of the beast. For seven years he ate grass with the ox. Then the Lord restored his mind and he testified these words, “And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honored Him that liveth forever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom is from generation to generation: And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and He doeth according to His will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?” (Daniel 4:34-35). The Almighty has means and ways to humble the proud, and as He humbled the great Babylonian Emperor, He can humble this high minded society.
