INTRODUCTION TO THE TUDORS
Truth to Teach (Source)
Acts 17:26-27 ‘From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the
whole earth; and he determined the exact times set for them and the exact places
where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach
out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.’
God is sovereign over the times and places we live.
Psalm 33:10 ‘The Lord foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the
peoples. But the plans of the Lord stand firm for ever, the purposes ofhis heart
through all generations.’
God is sovereign over the nations and their rulers throughout history.
