Synopsis

Who is regulating affairs on this earth today-God, or the Devil? That God reigns supreme in Heaven, is generally conceded; that He does so over this world, is almost universally denied-if not directly, then indirectly. More and more are men in their philosophizing and theorizing, relegating God to the background. Take the material realm. Not only is it denied that God created everything, by personal and direct action, but few believe that He has any immediate concern in regulating the works of His own hands. Everything is supposed to be ordered according to the (impersonal and abstract) "laws of Nature". Thus is the Creator banished from His own creation. Therefore we need not be surprised that men, in their degrading conceptions, exclude Him from the realm of human affairs.

Biographie de l'auteur

Arthur Walkington Pink (April 1, 1886 - July 15, 1952) was an evangelist and biblical scholar known for his Calvinist and Puritan teachings. Born in England, Pink became a Christian in his early 20s and emigrated to the United States to study at Moody Bible Institute. He pastored churches in Australia and England before returning to the U.S. to pastor churches in Colorado, California, Kentucky, and South Carolina. Pink returned to England in 1934, turning his Christian service toward writing books and pamphlets. After his death, his works were republished by the Banner of Truth Trust and reached a much wider audience as a result, making him one of the most influential evangelical authors in the second half of the twentieth century. His writing sparked a revival of expository preaching and focused readers' hearts on biblical living. His works include numerous Bible studies and books such as The Attributes of God, The Doctrine of Justification, The Patience of God, and The Total Depravity of Man.
