Shattering the 'God is in Control' Myth: Exploring Free Will and Divine Sovereignty
In this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan explores the often-heard phrase “God is in control” and challenges its deeper implications regarding personal responsibility and human suffering.
He argues that God does not control every event, highlighting instead the gift of free will granted to humans, angels, and even animals. Through real-life examples and key biblical references, Dan explains how the belief that God orchestrates every circumstance can foster a victim mindset and lead to flawed reasoning.
He emphasizes the importance of taking personal responsibility and actively aligning our choices with God’s will to manifest His kingdom on earth.
