If God exercises general government and control over the entire universe, how do you explain the apparent dominance of sin?

It is only on this earth that sin is apparently dominant, and this earth is a very small portion of the universe.

Furthermore, God’s plans are eternal and take ages for their full working out. The apparent dominance of sin is only temporary. Through its permission at the present time God is working out His own plans of good. When these plans are wrought out, we will see how all the time back of man’s failures, rebellions and sin was the controlling power of God. Indeed, we can see it in large measure even at the present time.
