“Question & Answer”

Question:
How is God’s Lordship over history demonstrated in the ease of Assyria?
Answer:
He is not the King of kings and the Lord of lords merely in name. He really rules the nations. Therefore, “All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you. It reads in Isaiah 10:6 NIV> I send him against a godless nation, I dispatch him against a people who anger me, to seize loot and snatch plunder, and to trample them down like mud in the streets. It reads in Isaiah 14:25 NIV> God says:I will crush the Assyrian in my land; on my mountains I will trample him down. His yoke will be taken from my people, and his burden removed from their shoulders.” It reads in Isaiah 10:12 NIV> When the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the willful pride of his heart and the haughty look in his eyes.
