God Is Sole Creator And Rightful Owner Of The Earth And Everything In
It

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
(Genesis 1:1 KJV)

"All things were made by him; and without him was not
anything made that was made." (John 1:3 KJV)

"For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that
are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or
dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created
by him, and for him:" (Colossians 1:16 KJV)

"Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power:
for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are
and were created." (Revelation 4:11 KJV)

"And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it
was very good." (Genesis 1:31a KJV)

"The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the
world, and they that dwell therein." (Psalms 24:1 KJV)

"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and
create evil: I the Lord do all these things." (Isaiah 45:7
KJV)

" . . . whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine."
(Job 41:11 KJV)
" . . . for all the earth is mine." (Exodus 9:15 KJV)
"For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon
a thousand hills." (Psalms 50:10 KJV)

" . . . for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof."
(Psalms 50:12 KJV)

God Gave Man The Power And Authority To Rule Over All The Earth
Genesis 1:26-31 (RSV)
[26] Then 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
birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and
over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth."
[27] So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he
created him; male and female he created them.

[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 the air and over every living
thing that moves upon the earth."

[29] And God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed
which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in
its fruit; you shall have them for food.

[30] And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air,
and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the
breath of life, I have given every green plant for food." And it was
so.

[31] And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very
good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.

We Are Accountable To God For Our Management Of
Everything He Has Entrusted To Us Here On Earth
The More He Gives To Us, The More He Requires From Us
MATTHEW 25:14-30 (KJV) "The Parable Of The Talents"
NOTE: A "talent" was a sum of money
equal to about two years wages.

14
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling
into
a far country, who called his own servants, and
delivered unto them his goods.
15
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two,
and to another one; to every man according to his
several ability; and straightway took his journey.
16
Then he that had received the five talents went
and
traded with the same, and made them other five
talents.
17
And likewise he that had received two, he also
gained
other two.
18
But he that had received one went and digged in
the
earth, and hid his lord's money.
19
After a long time the lord of those servants
cometh,
and reckoneth with them.
20
And so he that had received five talents came and
brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou
deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have
gained beside them five talents more.
21
His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and
faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a
few
things, I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22
He also that had received two talents came and
said,
Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents:
behold, I
have gained two other talents beside them.
23
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and
faithful
servant; thou hast been faithful over a few
things, I
will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou
into the joy of thy lord.
24
Then he which had received the one talent came and
said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man,
reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering
where
thou hast not strawed:
25
And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in
the
earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26
His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked
and
slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I
sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
27
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to
the
exchangers, and then at my coming I should have
received mine own with usury.
28
Take therefore the talent from him, and give it
unto
him which hath ten talents.
29
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and
he
shall have abundance: but from him that hath not
shall be taken away even that which he hath.
30
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer
darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of
teeth.

"For unto whomsoever much is given, of him
shall be much required:" (Luke 12:48b KJV)
