Who Is In Control?

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting BibleTherapy.com. This section has articles and information on Biblical Counseling, Biblical Change, Counseling Errors, Sexual Addiction, Counseling Theories and other counseling topics. Our goal is to provide articles and information to help individuals deal with problems and issues from a Biblical foundation and perspective.

There currently are 'hundreds' of psychology theories that differ on how to bring change and what causes personal or interpersonal problems. Most are opposed not only to each other, but take a very unbiblical view of how to help others.

In Jeremiah 27:5, we read:

…I made the earth . . . and the people . . . I give it to anyone I please . . .

What is God telling the Jews through Jeremiah?

The answer ?—He is I charge of politics. And for His purposes He determines who will and who will not be in charge of Governments. As He says elsewhere, He raises up one and puts down another.

Does that mean that we have no say in the matter? Of course not. We vote. But, providentially, God so arranges things that our votes achieve His purposes. And His purposes may be to bring tragedy upon an ungrateful nation, as He did upon Israel.

Sometimes the rulers we abhor therefore, are but His judgment, one that we deserve.
