On Kingdom Building

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth." (Gen 1:27-28)

What are we here for ? What is it that gives our life meaning, direction and purpose ? What does God want from us ? The answer to these questions, the first two of which are often heard in society, is found in the very beginning of the bible, Genesis 1, verses 27 and 28, as quoted above. God wants us to be fruitful and multiply, and He wants us to be stewards of His creation. So Kingdom Building in the plural marriage, multi-generational family is a matter of fulfilling God's will for us, the reason why he blessed us. It includes every sphere of life, brought under the authority of God.
