Me Mormon nnononono and what does that make you? the keeper of tradition? who provides nothing but a "that is how it is" while admitting it can be interpreted more than one way
An extension from dominion of the earth to the heavenlies isn't a poopoo thing. The verse says " what is man that deserves such an honor" Without Christ we are nothing. (you forget that Joshua commanded the sun and moon to stand still)
Genesis 1:26
26 And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of heaven and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.
Genesis 1:28
28 And God blessed them; and God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of heaven and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.
Psalm 8:3
3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place
6 You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet,
God gives dominion over the earth, when we lose that what else do you think we will reign over when reaching the heavenlies?
I'm not going to argue the use of the Greek I'll take your word that it can be interpreted either way. I've offered lots of scripture to cast a doubt on the traditional way and see nothing in scripture to support it. By support I mean other scripture holding it up.
The only thing that you can come up with is to say that crowns are not worn by angels in scripture. IOW, ruling angels do not exist....but there are scripture referring to rulers of the heavenlies whether good or bad to whom the church at this time are to witness to (in a sense our first job over the angels)
Ephesians 3:10
10 In order that now to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenlies the multifarious wisdom of God might be made known through the church,
edited to add insert of Joshua commanding sun to stand still, the reason for being accused of being a Mormon, I assume?
