Essence of a Christian Worldview, i.e. God is Sovereign

“Another fundamental element of the humanist agenda [e.g. the Humanist Manifesto of 1933] is man’s complete sovereign control over his own destiny. . . . One simple proverb destroys the grand proclamations of the Humanist Manifesto: “A man’s heart deviseth his way, but God directeth his steps” (Proverbs 16:19). It is not brute chance in an indeterminate universe that controls man’s destiny, nor is it man himself. God and only God is sovereign over reality. This is the very essence of a Christian worldview” (Kevin Swanson, Apostate, 162).
