The List Is Supposed To Get Longer

Even after the “Adam-Bomb,” even after they disobeyed God and left the garden to live stressed and sweaty lives; and even after they raised a self-willed son who murdered his brother, God did not change His mind or His original mandate.  Even after the breach and the fall of man, the Kingdom and the Mandate of dominion were still in effect!  Even before Jesus–the Restorer of the Breach–came to fix it, evidence of the dominion mandate showed up again and again in Old Testament characters who walked in dominion.  It was an Old Testament man (Elijah) who took dominion over the weather and called a 3½ year drought. It was an Old Testament man who took dominion over the natural element, iron, and made it contradict its own properties and float.  It was an Old Testament man who took dominion over depletion to supply the widow’s oil.  It was an Old Testament boy who took dominion over an army’s dilemma and killed a giant.  It was an Old Testament man who took dominion over the sun and told it to be still for an entire day!  It was an Old Testament man who took dominion over death and raised the Shunammite’s son!  Even still, these are just a few of many more Old Testament examples of dominion.   Then God sent His Son, the Second and the Last Adam, to be the First Born among many sons, because God intended the list to get longer and it is still increasing.
