Episode Synopsis

Prophecy, history, and the heart of man are all in the hands of God's meticulous providence. We can see, together with many early Christians, how the redemptive history of Scripture, the decisions of the world's most powerful men, and the historical record are seamlessly woven together. Our Lord is in the heavens, and does all that He pleases (Psalm 115:3). Even when God vindicates the blood of the innocents by hurling calamity down to the earth, His hand of protection is over His children. When He shakes the earth, He does so to remove the temporary things, and to make way for His unshakable kingdom. So, the charge is this, be grateful that you have received this kingdom, and offer to the Lord acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for He is a consuming fire (Heb. 12:27-29).
