Untying God's "Nots": Or, How Much Control Does God Really Have?

If a nation marches against you, know that I am not behind it. (Isaiah 54:15a; The Voice) A common phrase used by many Christians, particularly when there is some tragic event, is that “God is in control”. Many people mean different things by the statement, however, the majority of those who use the statement believe that God initiated the tragic event and had a secret mysterious plan to bring some unknown good from it. We believe that such a teaching casts aspersions on God's character. Besides, the origins of this teaching is not from the Bible but is derived from pagan philosophy. Throughout these pages we will look at a number of arguments and Scriptures used by proponents of this teaching and show the reader that it does not line up with the Bible's teaching about God. The reader will also learn that this teaching is a tool of Satan to keep Christians passive so that they will not stand against him in the authority of Christ's victory over him.
