Last time spoke of the dominion, or stewardship, we have been given over creation. A position of great honor and trust, as well as being the final creation of God in the Creation week. Mankind is, in a very real sense, the crowning achievement of Creation....

Imagine how wonderful creation is, and how majestic and incredible... and then God trusts mankind to rule and have dominion over the world! We should be careful to rule well....
