0:00.0 | Welcome to the Friday Q&A. I'm Pastor Mike Winger. I try to help you learn how to think |
0:04.8 | biblically about everything. That doesn't mean that I think perfectly biblically about everything, |
0:09.2 | but it is definitely like a major life obsession and goal of mine and one of those goals is to equip others to do the same thing and so I'm taking your questions today in the live chat the first question that I've chosen ahead of time that was sent in by one of the viewers is married couples. |
0:25.0 | Well the big question is this should we be fruitful and multiply is that command |
0:29.7 | in Genesis still applicable to us today be fruitful and multiply and I think to really |
0:34.8 | the hardest part of this question for me is should marry couples should it be |
0:39.8 | considered okay for them to just choose not to have kids at all. So not just single people. |
0:44.2 | Marry people, that's the hardest part, but I'm going to try to walk through |
0:48.0 | several of these issues today and while we're doing that you're loading your |
0:51.1 | questions, we're getting the rest of the the other |
0:52.9 | 19 so I'll do 20 questions today as always this is actually the last life |
0:57.5 | live stream that I have planned for 2020 definitely the last Friday Q&A the next one will be January 1st. I will do a New Year's Day |
1:06.0 | one. I'll try to make that special somehow, brainstorm on what we can do to make that special. |
1:10.0 | But yeah, this is the last live stream I have at least scheduled unless I on a whim throw something else together. We will see that may happen |

So Genesis 128, it says, and God bless them, and this is his statement to Adam and Eve and by extension I think it does apply to all mankind |
1:36.2 | But let's think about how he says be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and has dominion over all the living things that live on the earth. |
1:46.0 | And so be fruitful and multiply. That's the command. It involves multiple things as you'll notice. involves having kids it also involves filling |
1:54.3 | the earth so filling the earth now the word earth back there it that could just mean |
2:00.6 | the area it or it could mean the globe but because the context here |
2:06.4 | it says have dominion over the fish and the birds and over every living thing that |
2:10.0 | moves on the earth the impression is that there aren't really boundaries to this command to fill the earth. The impression is that there aren't really boundaries to |
