LSM self-claimed self-delegated "Deputy Authority"

LSM co-workers : God’s intention to delegate authority to human beings is evident from Genesis 1:26

LSM co-workers : There God created man in His image and with His likeness and gave him dominion over the earth and all the things in it. This demonstrates a basic principle that God intends to exercise authority through men who express Him.

Max S on FB : …..uh……I am afraid the co-workers confuse two very different things: humans and animals.

Max S on FB : Genesis 1:26 says “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.”

Max S on FB : This is very, very clearly man being given authority over the ANIMALS – fish, birds, cattle, reptiles – and over the earth itself.

Max S on FB : If the co-workers want to dabble in animal husbandry because of this verse, I don’t think they would get much opposition (unless they try to pass themselves off as the Animal Husbandmen of the Age)

sheepless ABCZ : ...AH!....ahahahahahaha .... FUNNY!

Max S on FB : This is still not an authority to be scorned and is a great and humbling responsibility.

sheepless ABCZ : ...AH!....ahahahahahaha ....

sheepless AXYZ : still … no no … LSM co-workers do not have Deputy Authority over the animals at all! Their mota said himself cannot even control a mosquito …

Max S on FB : Genesis 1:26 has nothing to do with God granting deputy authority to people to be over other people, or to represent God to other people.

sheepless AXYZ : AHhhhh … LSM co-workers do not claim authority over ‘other people’. They only control their One Publication buyers. If you don’t buy from them, they cannot control you …

Max S on FB : I think we can all grant that Genesis 1:26 shows an amount of delegated authority through men, but the exercise of that authority is over animals, and does not support the LSM local church “deputy authority” of humans being the acting God over other humans.

Max S on FB : This leap would be akin to saying that because God made someone a farmer, this means He meant them to be President of the United States.

What about farmers in Canada and Mexico ?
