‘Listen To Criticism.’
Proverbs 15:31-32.
a) If we listen to constructive criticism we will be at home among the wise people.
b) If we reject criticism, we only harm ourselves.
c) If we listen to correction we grow in understanding.

‘Mankind’s Dominion.’
Genesis 1:20-28.
a) Genesis 1:20-21. By His Word God Created the swarms of creatures in the sea and the birds of the air.
b) Genesis 1:21. God saw that what He had made was good.
c) Genesis 1:22. God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.
d) Genesis 1:23. It was the evening and morning of the fifth day. Please note that the evening began the next day, not the morning.
e) Genesis 1:24-25. God Created the beasts on the earth by His Word.
f) Genesis 1:25. Again God saw that what He had made was good.
g) Genesis 1:26-27. God made mankind in His Image. He Created both male and female. He Created them to have dominion over all the other creatures of His Creation.
h) Genesis 1:28. God Blessed the male and female and said to them: “ Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.”

Chris.
When God made mankind He made us to have dominion over all other creatures. This dominion was lost at the fall (when Adam and Eve sinned). The word “dominion” should no longer be used in the vocabulary of the True Believer in whatever context.
