This book (the first of three), informs and educates the reader in an area of Biblical theology, that is an essential to living the Christian life in this increasingly troubled world. Its subject matter is on what is known as, the Dominion Mandate. The author's goal is to present human responsibility under God, in the clear light of Scripture, challenge his reader, and evoke a response in their daily life. This first volume deals with the basic definition of the mandate, as well as its application, as revealed in both the Old and the New Testament.
