Both ideas have pros and cons and there are extremists for both. Personally I think the former is over stressed in church these days (now I'm starting to sound like Mark Driscoll). It ain't a new thing, Christians have been arguing about it for hundreds of years now.

It makes sense that the same God who designed the everything-relies-on-everything-else system that the universe runs on designed this with the same order.
