Description
  • Knox speaks on the topic of man's dominion over creation based on Genesis 1:26. Man has been created as the head over all of creation. Our dominion is God-like in nature and we must imitate God's interaction with creation. Part of an expression of our dominion includes bringing to perfection all of creation (cf. Genesis 2:5). God willingly works through time. Over time, God accomplishes our sanctification and growth. As a consequence of sin, we have lost our dominion over creation, consequently becoming slaves to sin and passion. Indicative of this situation are the four beasts first described in Daniel and developed in Revelation. Despite apparent rebellion, Christ has received the Kingdom and dominion over creation. Jesus is the fulfilment of Old Testament expectations of a figure who will rule forever. Christ is both the image of God and the fulfiller of man's purpose in purpose. Through Christ, we also reign.
