GOD HIMSELF
NOT A SOVEREIGN
The King lanes TransIators by Forgery
Tried to Make Sod Sovereign
No Worm, Grasshopper. EothiHa-Person
Can be a Sovereign in Any Sense.


l. A sovereign is a ''despOt in
vested with absolute power, ruling
without any control from men, con-
stituton or laws" and we know God
is controlled by His Law in all of
His rulings, both of Himself, His
angels, and all men, whether friend
or foes. He having magnifed His
commandment Word Gas Hebrew
says) "above all His name Is. 1892.
therefore God is not = sovereign at
all, in no sense.
2, If God was sovereign He
alone could be sovereign OF His
universe. and by forging the word,
"Potentate," in l Tim. 6:15, as the
translator of Paul's Greek word,
"dunsstes," the King James transla.
tors makes it appear that God is a
sovereign, becouse "potentste", by
another forgery of meaning, did be-
come to mean "a sovereign," but if
all true, it affords no comfort to mon
Who now profess to be sovereigns,
because the whole verse in King
James version says: (which in
His (Christ's> times shall show, who
is the blessed and only potentate,
(only sovereign, the King of kings
and Lord of lords, and so if this text
means that God is a sovereign, it
clearly means that He only, is a SOW
ereign, and therefore it plainly says
nobody but God Is sovereign,
therefore sovereignty is killed
dead as "Heck," and they tell me he
was "deader than the DEVIL" and |
believe it. But while poteutate by
another forgery has come to mean a
"sovereign," PauPs Greek word,
'sdunastes," never did mean a SOW
ereign, but always "Lord, Master,
Ruler" and so we see they had to
forge sovereignty into that text. In
LIKE 1852, we have to go to Paul's
same Greek word, ''dunastes," to get
the meaning of the English word,
"mighty," instead of the word "Po-
tentate," AZ they did the same Greek
word in l Tim. 6:l5, and why this
difference? This text, Wilson's En-
phatic Diaglott, translates. "He (God)
casts down Potentate from Thrones
and raises up the lowly, 40 as he has
it in his liberal translation, "humble
ones," which is correct, and in either
case we see God "puts down" or
"casts down" all Potentate men SOW
ereigns, and raises up the Stumble
ones" to their thrones, which plainly
shows God is against all men sover-
eigns, because they are made such
sovereigns only BY satan, the finest
professed sovereign in all of Gods
for by so doing the devil
exalted himself above all that is call
ed God "(2. Thess. 2:4), for God has
never yet exalted himself to
sovereign.
3. That Job, with all goodness,
was not sovereign is apparent from
his own words: ~ have said to cor
ruption, Thou art my father: to the
worm, Thou art my mother, and my
sister" Dob 19:l4)
4 Job 25:6 says: "How much less
man, that is worm? and the son of
man, which is a worme"
5. OF Himself in Ps. 22:6, Christ
said: "But | am a worm, and no
mighty champion, powerful Ish-
man." and it is . we'll attested fact
that all lsh-men were professed SOW
sreigns.
8. OF resurrected; and therefore
'piritualized and immortallzed bod
es, Il Cor. l5:42-4+) Christ said
heir bodies were still worms Mark
BAD, and il their bodies were stlll
o be worms, we know it will be only
BECAUSE they were worms, and not
overeigns while living on earth.
7. In Isaiah 1929, read: "It is
He (God) ethat sitteth uran the cir
ies of the earth, and the inhabitants
