"Prompt: Use these words in you blog entry: dominion, sovereignty, kingdom, realm, universe."

This prompt is easy for me because I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ whose sovereignty is universal. He created the universe and everything in it. Then His creation (mankind) rebelled against Him and sin entered the world. Due to His holy nature God cannot tolerate sin. He must be separated from it and thus man died spiritually when sin entered the world. God is a loving God and was not willing to let man die and be separated from Him so He set a plan in motion from the moment man sinned to bring man back into fellowship with Him. The only thing that can atone for sin is death so God made provision for man to be in fellowship with the shedding of blood. At first tthis blood was the blood of animals such as rams and goats but God had an even better sacrifice in mind. After the passage of time God sent His own Son Jesus Christ to die for the sin of man. Jesus died and established his kingdom on earth because death could not hold Him because He is God. He rose from the dead after three days and established total dominion. He now shares that dominion with His church and will share it eternally in Heaven one day. I have no problems because I am a child of the King of kings!
