"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." -Genesis 1:27-28 The Old Testament

Since the beginning of human life here on earth, the Bible accounts the dominion that mankind was meant to have while in fellowship with his Creator. This spiritual fellowship was broken very early in our race when Adam and Eve disobeyed their Father and Creator by choosing selfishness and greed over obedience. Because of this rebellion, man's authority over earth as ruler and supreme governor was severely hampered by Satan's deception. In fact, although God still had ownership of this planet, stewardship was sacrificed and given up to Satan as evil continued to prosper. So evil had this planet become in such a short period of time, that we have our Creator sadly stating:

"And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them." -Genesis 6:6-7 The Old Testament

Fortunitely for you and I, Noah found favor in God's eyes and preserved our race from total extinction. Yet even from a fresh start, sin and its master continue to plague each human being until it subdues our original intention of godly fellowship and authority over this planet. Mankinds rule and governance was so tainted by the time of Jesus Christ's arrival here on earth that Satan, the great boaster and deceiver, could declare in truth:

"And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, showed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine." -Luke 4:5-7 The New Testament

Yet as so often happens with those in selfish authority, Satan had no clue to the coming change in his dominion. The Godhead had planned an ultimate covert program to rescue this earth from Satan's authority and set it back on track. It was called The Atonement. No other method could so wisely pardon the wicked without destroying the honor of the Pardoner. No other way could be found to sustain the Moral Government of the Creator in the Universe.

"Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me." -John 12:31-32 The New Testament

And the results of such a sacrifice were clearly stated by the Pardoner in such a way that those who conformed to this sacrifice by true repentance and obedience could make no mistake about their dominion.

"For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?" -1 John 5:3-5 The New Testament

Now, in light of the alien threat to our planet, we have a blunt question for those now managing and controlling our national defenses. Do you really think that your flawed human intelligence and recovered scraps are enough to protect this corrupted planet from their superior intellect and technology? The majority have chosen to fight by weapons of the flesh and so are prohibited from taking back the authority that was meant to be ours.

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled." -2 Corinthians 10:3-6

The Bible is clear regarding the battle for our planet. Only those who forsake themselves and trust in the Creator's Atonement will find forgiveness and restoration to fellowship with His Spirit. The results of which again will bring about the proper Dominion of Earth!
