The Supremacy Of Christ In And Over All Things!

Pastor John Piper said:
If there is anything admirable, if there is anything worthy of praise in all the universe, it is summed up in Jesus Christ. He is always infinitely admirable in everything and over everything supreme.

He is sovereign and supreme over all plants and animals;

He is supreme over all weather; all chemical processes and all the amazing grace of antibiotics;

He is supreme over all countries and governments and armies;

He is supreme over all nuclear threats; He is supreme over politics;

He is supreme over all education and universities, no matter what they teach;

And He is supreme over all scholarship and science and research;

He is supreme over all business and finance and industry and manufacturing and transportation;

And He is supreme over the internet and all informational systems.

As Abraham Kuyper famously said, "there is not one square inch on planet earth over which the risen Christ does not say Mine!"
