How do you know the Creator's mandate in Genesis 1 is being carried out to this very day?

To go forth, be fruitful and multiply? Fill the earth, subdue it? To rule over the birds, and sea, and creatures on the ground? These things we have done. Even to the point of nearly reaching seven billion people on earth at one time. His marching orders concerning these things have not changed. We have glorified the Creator by being as he is. He creates, we create. He loves, we love. He thinks, we think. We are wonderfully made because we were made in his image. He has joy, we have joy. He is life, we have life. Praise God from who all blessings flow.
