Today Ashley wraps up the mini-series on the first command to men and women "Be fruitful and multiply." After looking at the joy of fruitfulness, the pain of brokenness, and the opposition of culture, we look into scripture for how to address the anti-life Satanic agenda and recover lost ground in the church. We can discern God's design with the three-fold standard of Life, Love, and Truth.
Summary points:
- Every living thing God created multiplies.
- God’s first shared role for men and women is to be fruitful and multiply.
- We approach God’s command for fruitfulness with an attitude of obedience and trust.
- We embrace grace for the reality of brokenness.
- We reject the lies and fear of Satan’s culture of death.
- We rejoice with each child God gifts us.
- We aspire to both physical and spiritual fruitfulness.
