The Mystery of Israel's Salvation
For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? Rom 11:34
For who hath... Questions 80-82. Next, Rom. 13:3.
(Quoted from Isa. 40:13) “Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or [being] his counsellor hath taught him?”
God is all in all. We need Him, He does not need us. He loves us and wants us, but He does not need us.
Rev. 4:11 “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”
You see, the reason we were created in the first place was for God’s pleasure. We are His, we are not our own.
As
above the apostle then quoted Isa. 40:13, which shows that God is the
sole Designer of His wise plan. No one knows His mind or gives Him
advice. This is followed by a free quotation from Job 41:11, which
testifies to God’s sole responsibility for His acts. God is indeed
the Sovereign of all things, the One to whom all creatures are
accountable and whom all should glorify.
