Has not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel to honor, and another to dishonor?…


I. THE QUESTION PROPOSED.

2. Proposed as an argument for conviction.

II. THE ANSWER IMPLIED. That God is —

1. The Creator of all things.

2. The arbitrator of the destiny of everything.

3. That He has, as such, a right to create and plan out as He thinks fit.

Application:

1. Do not question God's authority.

2. Submit to all His decrees with humility.
