Fill the Earth

Genesis 1:28 NKJV

28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

1. Filling the earth comes after multiplying our fruitfulness.

in one sense we are talking about the family. We don’t need to fill until we can feed and clothes your family before you should expand on it.

we have a problem in the modern times in that we are killing the unborn for convenience.

It is considered a “woman’s reproductive” right. assuming that is correct ( and I am not saying that it is merely a reproductive right) but assuming that it is, what about the unborn woman.

you cannot fill when you kill what God gave you to fill with.

2. Let’s drill down on the evangelical view.

Genesis 1:27 NKJV

27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Genesis 9:6 NKJV

6 “Whoever sheds man’s blood, By man his blood shall be shed; For in the image of God He made man.

James 3:9 NKJV

9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God.

Psalm 139:14 NKJV

14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.

We are made in the image of God, all of us, are made in the image of God. We are all created by God’s designed your gift set, your personality, your purpose.

This is why to take a life not sanctioned by God.

Mere humans are not to decide when other humans should die. when people try to make me feel bad because I believe that life begins a conception.

Let’s take a look at The Gospel of Luke.

Luke 1:41 NKJV

41 And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV

5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

Life is a gift from God. We do not have the right to end ours or anyone else’s.

2. I have a problem with how some evangelicals treat the lost in the world.

The Christian Church (typically the younger generation is goes with the spirit of the world). One of that reasons we lost the younger generation is because we where mean while we where right.

I have a few family members who are atheist on the agnostic side. this means that they cannot prove.

There are people that think they are more intelligent because they are atheist or agnostics.

Some Christians believe just because they get the right line on the unborn that everything else is okay.

it’s not. we have fallowed the world in our feelings. I can disagree with a lost person without hating them especially in the name of God.

3. Even if you have had an abortion, there is Grace for you. You can be forgiven.

Moses was a Murderer.

Exodus 2:11–15 NKJV

11 Now it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren. 12 So he looked this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. 13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the one who did the wrong, “Why are you striking your companion?” 14 Then he said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” So Moses feared and said, “Surely this thing is known!” 15 When Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well.

Abraham was a Liar.

Genesis 12:11–13 NKJV

11 And it came to pass, when he was close to entering Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, “Indeed I know that you are a woman of beautiful countenance. 12 Therefore it will happen, when the Egyptians see you, that they will say, ‘This is his wife’; and they will kill me, but they will let you live. 13 Please say you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that I may live because of you.”

The Apostle Paul was the chief Persecutor of the Church.

Acts 8:3 NKJV

3 As for Saul, he made havoc of the church, entering every house, and dragging off men and women, committing them to prison.

The Apostle Paul Held the coats of Stephen as they threw stones at him until he died.

Acts 7:58–8:1 NKJV

58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep. 1 Now Saul was consenting to his death. At that time a great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

if there is Grace for these men of the bible there is grace for you.

Jesus died to save sinners

not just misdemeanor sins.

receive the grace if God.

1 John 1:9 NKJV

9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

I am not here to condemn.

I am here to call you too repentance.

I am here to call you to reconciliation.

I am here to call you to healing.
