“Don’t you realize that if there is one molecule in this universe
running around loose outside the scope or the sphere of God’s divine
control and authority and power, then that single maverick molecule may
be the grain of sand that changes the entire course of human history,
that blocks God from keeping the promises he has made to his people? It
may be that one maverick molecule that will prevent Christ from the
consummation of his kingdom. For if there is one maverick molecule, it
would mean that God is not sovereign. If God is not sovereign, then God
is not God. If there is any element of the universe that is outside of
his authority, then he no longer is God over all. In other words,
sovereignty belongs to deity. Sovereignty is a natural attribute of the
Creator. God owns what he makes, and he rules what he owns.” – R.C.
