0In creation, God established a system of divine law and order in the universe and humanity. The power and responsibility of men and fathers were given to them by God in His divine order of creation.

In the creation of humanity, God first created man out of Himself, and put him in the Garden, to dress and keep it, giving him dominion, power, and the responsibility, to develop, control, and govern the environment of this world.

Then God created the woman out of the man and gave her to the man, through which He created the family, making man the head of his family.

By giving man headship and dominion, God was giving man the keys to his kingdom, making him the gatekeeper of his world. Therefore, holding the man responsible, and accountable for everything that gets into his world.

This is why Jesus said; "When a strong man armed keeps his palace, his goods are in peace." The strong man armed, however, does not mean his physical ability, or the weapons of the world, but to be armed with the weapons of God. He is armed with the power of the Holy Spirit and the authority of the word of God.

However, the men and fathers, of this generation, have walked away from their post; and have left the gates of the city, and the doors of their homes open, un-manned, and unprotected; leaving their families, easy prey for the enemy.

Because the family is the foundation of society, as the family goes, so goes society; and society can never be fixed until the family is fixed, and the family can never be fixed, until the man, the father, is in his rightful place in God and in the home.

In this book, we will explore the original plan and purpose of God for the world, humanity, and the family; and the effect of the failure of man upon the family, society, and God's remedy, and solution for man, and for the world. In this book, we will explore the original plan and purpose of God for the world, humanity, and the family; and the effect of the failure of man upon the family, society, and God's remedy, and solution for man, and for the world.
