Open your Bibles with me this morning to the book of Genesis chapter 1.

Verse 26, God said, let us make men in our image after our likeness, let them have dominion over the

fish of the sea, over the fowl of the air, over the cattle of the air over the cattle over all the earth and over every

The blessing.

Now a number of years ago, maybe some of you read our book,
