“The LORD has established His throne in the heavens, And His sovereignty rules over all.” (Psalm 103:19; NASBU)
Sovereignty – supreme authority or rule, royal power, dominion.
The extent of GOD’S exercised sovereignty is the issue. What kind of Sovereignty does GOD exercise? Does GOD micromanage everything? Did GOD decide before the foundation of the world not to control every last detail that happens? GOD, in His sovereignty, chose to create mankind with free will – the personal freedom and responsibility to choose between good and evil.
