God is sovereign over all creation, including the proclamation and revelation of the gospel.
"The sovereignty of God is that golden scepter in his hand by which he will make all bow, either by his word or by his works, by his mercies or by his judgements" ~ Thomas Brooks 1608–1680, English non-conformist Puritan minister and author. He stayed true to the gospel and congregational model of church through much persecution and trial. His best works include Heaven on Earth: A Treatise on Assurance and Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices. Sermon Bulletin Insert
