History Has a Purpose
On 1 Chronicles:
History is not accidental and without purpose...Of course, we can speak of history having purpose only if it has a purposer - a creator, director, and sovereign...That purposing ruler is not you or me; it is the Lord God Almighty, Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He is not simply one among many gods; he is the one true God. His plans and purposes will be carried out, and he will use the mighty kings of Assyria or Babylon for his ends.
