Paradise Restored (Gen 1:26-28) Intro: Review Our job is the multiplication of God's image and dominion over God's creation to the praise of God's glory.
1. The division of mankind and the promise of restoration (Abraham...) See Gen 3:15, 9:1ff, 12:1ff, 17:4ff
Today: Are we 'Fellow workers for the kingdom of God' (Col 4:11)?
2. The restoration and failure of the kingdom (David...) See Ex 19:5-6; Deut 17; 1 Sam 8:5; Ps 2, 72; Col 3:10; Eph 4:24
3. The restoration and success of the kingdom (Jesus, son of David, son of Abraham) See 1 Cor 15:21-28; Dan 2, 7; Is 7, 9, 40; etc.
Next Time 4. The division of mankind and the fulfillment of restoration (Adam II and his bride) Application
Conclusion Recognize that we, as the image of God, have a royal dignity and responsibility to fulfill God's kingdom plans on the earth through multiplication and dominion to the glory of God. Those who can't receive this calling won't receive the kingdom (Matt 3, 7:19; Lk 9:62, 14:27,27,33)
