Co-Ruling with Christ - Hugh Daniel Smith - Bog

The question of human suffering has perplexed human beings for millennia. Some philosophers reason that suffering is not really a bad thing, for it offers people the opportunity to prove their true moral character. Some contemporary, secular thinkers conclude that God is either incapable of stopping human suffering, capable but uncaring, or simply nonexistent. Ancient Jewish writers interpret Israel's suffering as a form of chastisement for sins which required repentance and sacrifice. Hindus believe that human suffering is the result of karma, and therefore, people are encouraged to accept and endure it. The purpose of this book is not only to offer another perspective on human suffering but also to provide practical tools that can be employed in the work of healing and overcoming it. In this book, we will explore humanity's Dominion Mandate and how it factors into the management and wellbeing of the earth. Leaders of companies and organizations, fathers and mothers, individuals and couples can all participate in healing our world by simply accepting this mandate and employing the tools of the trade. I truly believe God is raising up an army of believers who are adequately trained to co-rule with Christ - from His throne in heaven to the earth where we reside. The healing of our land will only become a reality when this army of co-rulers proves to this generation by demonstration that Jesus is not only alive but that He is Lord and Ruler of all.
