This is a ministry of striving for eternity. For about 18 years now, we've heard the question, where was

01:20

God on September 11th? Well, God was right where he always is, in control of everything.

01:29

Now, the thing that people have to realize is that just because God's in control of everything doesn't mean he's going to rule everything the way, well, they want it ruled.

01:41

In other words, what we often find is that people think that God should do things the way they think he should do things.

01:48

Now, let's start with one basic thing. God is omniscient. That means that God knows everything.

01:56

Second point, God is good. In fact, we wouldn't know what good is other than the nature of God.

02:02

So, when we look at these things, we know that God is not going to do things that are evil.

02:08

And God knows everything there is to know. He's also omnipotent, meaning he's all -powerful, he can do whatever he wants.

02:16

That's within his nature. And so what do we see? We see that God does allow sin to occur.

02:23

That doesn't mean that he can somehow not be present when evil exists.

02:30

No. God is still in control, even though evil is happening. What really shook everyone in 9 -11 wasn't the fact that God wasn't in control.

02:40

It was that post -modernism said that there was no such thing as evil, and they came face -to -face with what evil looks like.

02:47

They were living in a dreamland, and it ended. But God is still on the throne. This podcast is part of the
