Abdication and Dominion

Open Your Bible

Genesis 1:26-30, Psalm 8:1-9, Romans 8:16-17, 2 Timothy 2:11-13, Revelation 5:10, Revelation 20:4-6, Revelation 21:7-8

After reading today’s passages, use the guiding content below to help you reflect, respond, and engage with one another.

In the beginning, God gave humans dominion over the earth and called them to rule, cultivate, and care for creation. Ultimately, though, the first people abdicated their responsibility. In the end, God’s people reign alongside Him. 

In prayer and in the comments, reflect on the good things in the new creation that you already see (in part) in the present world. What might the restoration of new creation look like in your own life?
