The Corrupt Bargain from the year 1824 was about how none of the candidates were able to secure a majority of the electoral vote, because of this problem they had to put this in the hands of the House of Representatives who elected John Quincy Adams instead of Andrew Jackson.

Charles Spurgeon preached the sermon in this unit entitled “The Sovereignty of God.” True False

antiseptic1488 [7]

The answer is False. The sermon "The Sovereignty of God" is preached by Arthur Pink.

"The Sovereignty of God" is a biblical doctrine which holds that everything is under God's rule and control and that nothing occurs without His knowledge or consent. God orchestrates everything, not just some things, in accordance with the plan of His own will (see Eph. 1:11). Nothing surprises Him because His plans are all-encompassing and are never thwarted (see Isa. 46:11). God's omnipotence is more than just that He has the authority and right to rule over all; it also means that He does so consistently and without fail. God is therefore not only sovereign de jure (in theory), but also sovereign de facto (in practice).
