The Multiplier of Life:
God Commands Us to Be a Multiplier of Life.
(Genesis 1:26-28)
Family - biological
Be fruitful and multiply…be prosperous and increase greatly in number.
It’s part of the blessing.
Fill the earth.
You are my image bearers.
Take my image all over my creation, manage this good and blessed creation, and enjoy what I have made for you.
Subdue and Rule - already covered but are a subset of cultivating and keeping.
subdue and rule, originally, is about creation and not about people.
subduing and ruling people occurs after the fall
Should be about servant-leadership.
“Cultivating” is about worship of God through works of service rendered.
Rule also translated dominion
forcefully taking dominion occurs after the fall.
But in its proper understanding - it ties into keeping
“Keeping” is about protecting and providing.
That which God has given you oversight.
Family - spiritual
Families are the building blocks of society and the church
Family and the church keeps society headed in the right direction.
Multiplying the church - the Great Commission.
Dominion - Thy Kingdom Come
We Cannot Multiply Alone.
(Genesis 2:18, 23)

The Church Needs You and You Need The Church

It is not good for us to try to live this Christian life on our own.

Multiplying the Church is a group effort and we each have a part to play.
Man vs. Woman (vs.
23) - God determines how that was to happen.
Male (zakar) and Female (neqeba) - Hebrew words that refer particularly to biological sex.
(Genesis 1:27)
Hebrew words mean - biology in reference to procreation.
it is also why after parading the animals before Adam, he could not find any suitable partner, which would include procreation.
Each kind of animal had a male and a female.
What about me?
Where’s my female partner?
Man (Ish) and Woman (Ishshah).
Gender confusion?
Hebrew terms used to specify genders in particular.
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/can-men-become-pregnant#is-it-possible
A person’s gender may include specific social roles, norms, and expectations that differentiate men and women.
These characteristics are subjective, and they differ among societies, social classes, and cultures.
The gender by which a person identifies depends on the individual.
ish does not mean humankind in general, but specifically a man
ishshah defined as one who bears children
What is a woman?
- Matt Walsh
An adult female who can bear children.
ish and ishshah can be translated as husband and wife and are connected with the previous terms of Male and Female.
The Spiritual Family - the church
Different responsibilities
Differing but equally important roles within the church.
We are interdependent.
We are partners and work together.
