Bible Text: Genesis 1:28-31 | Preacher: James Allan | Series: Genesis | God gives man a mandate to rule. This is something of what it means to be made in His likeness. We rule as He rules. He is not presented as a tyrant but it’s generous, giving gifts to men and women. There was work before the fall. A Christian should be one who works hard. We are also to multiply. Children are a heritage and reward.
