Ever wonder why we don’t hear much about the dominion mandate? After all, it’s still God’s most basic instruction concerning what we’re to do with our lives.
The biggest reason for the neglect is probably this…
Pursuing the dominion mandate means taking responsibility for the condition of the world around us.
As children of Adam, taking responsibility is something we’d rather avoid. And we’d much prefer a religion that’s a way of escape from the cares of this world.
But here’s something to remember…
As God gives us grace to embrace responsibility in the domains he calls us, we discover our our glory and significance as His creatures.
We also experience the fulfillment that comes from knowing we’re part of His grand plan to transform all things through the power of His gospel.
