Very very good. An appropriate response for that scenario. We all like to think that God has to function how we want Him to - that we have some entitlement to know all His reasons and his workings. Really, we should have a sense of humility and gratitide for the work that He has made known to us in Scripture - His work on the cross for our salvation.
Lee, Thanks so much for posting this awesome video! I've read some of Voddie's stuff here and there, but have never heard him speak. This is a great reminder of our fallen nature and how quick we are to think ourselves sovereign! Wow! Thanks again. ~David

Funny thing. I just posted on that very question. I have to say that some of the commenters weren't exactly happy with that answer.
Excellent. Voddie Baucham's teaching has really blessed me, especially his book Family Driven Faith. This sermon looks awesome that the clip is from.
