Want to rule a galaxy?

Isaiah 9:7 says that, “Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end”

Randy Alcorn’s book, Heaven, would make a great Christmas present.  Alcorn vividly considers the implications of the biblical teaching that the Saints will reign with Christ.

If Christ expands his rule by creating new worlds, whom will he send to govern them on his behalf?  His redeemed people.  Some may rule over towns, some cities, some planets, some solar systems or galaxies.  Sound far-fetched?   . . . Is there anything in Scripture – – anything we know about God – – that would preclude him from expanding his creation and delegating authority to his children to rule over it?  I can’t think of anything.  Can you?

  1. I have no desire to rule a galaxy, but I do want to read this book. In fact, one of our pastors called us this week to see if we would lead a small group study of this book in February. I highly respect your opinions, Chris, so I’m happy to see that you recommend it.
