As sparks flew upward, Christian prophets like Tozer, Lewis, Phillips and others, were flung as burning embers across the theological landscape of the last century. They smoldered, then ignited, with the flame of their torches feeding on the unseen, setting the very air on fire, lighting the way, seeking to astonish and awaken God's church through their prophetic pens. Like the prophets of old, these refugees from yesterday wore a halo of sanctity, had long memories and a fierce loyalty to Truth; qualities that linger, indelibly stamped on our memories and imaginations. They stood in a howling theological wilderness like solitary prophets, weeping over a world becoming more and more empty of God. And, standing in the midst? The author of this Classic book - Arthur W. Pink.

With the dawn of the new millennium, the traditional understanding of Who God is and the historic understanding of how He is experienced are being shaped, reshaped, and shifted devastatingly by tumultuous theological and philosophical winds as truth is cast about in spiritual chaos. In the storm center of swirling spiritual confusion stands the post-modern church and, under her umbrella, the people who will shape both the ontological and existential truth for the next generation. With the destructive uprooting of once carefully sown biblical understandings that were planted by pious hands, the church of the new millennium is confronted with the necessity of defining and clarifying the historic, revealed identity of the God of Scripture and the truth of how He is experienced. Kierkegaard wrote, In every way it has come to this, that what one now calls Christianity is precisely what Christ came to abolish. In Heretics, Chesterton wrote, There is a collapse of the intellect as unmistakable as a falling house, It is that collapse that has produced the ongoing crisis for the post-modern church at the dawn of this new millennium. God was not and is not willing to allow the reality of Who He is or how He is to be experienced to be obscured by either nature, the heathen, the pagan or the fool. Through His revelation, He has made Himself known. Through God's revelation we understand that He has certain attributes or qualities that distinguish Him from His creation. He is sovereign. This Classic book - The Sovereignty Of God -- introduces and orients the reader to critical biblical/theological thinking about God -- with a clarity that fosters biblical thought and facilitates Bible comprehension. You won't be disappointed.
Who is this God? Attempting to describe God is like trying to paint a portrait of someone you've never seen. Each person, however, has an inward portrait of God that is painted, not with brush and paint, but with thoughts and words, on the canvas of their mind. These inward portraits of God help us develop an understanding of Who God is and how we can relate to Him. Each word or thought is like a dab of paint adding color to our portrait of God. History reveals, unfortunately, that some people have developed terribly distorted portraits of God. Paul wrote about these people, describing them as people who think up silly ideas of what God was like and what he wanted them to do and their foolish minds became dark and confused (Romans 1:21 LB). God was not and is not willing to allow the reality of Who He is or how He is to be experienced to be obscured by either nature, the heathen, the pagan or the fool. Through His revelation, He has made Himself known. Through God's revelation we understand that He has certain attributes or qualities that distinguish Him from His creation.
