some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings

inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy
all living creatures, as I have done.

Col 1:15 He is the image of the invisible
God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things were created:
things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or
powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.
17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he
is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn
from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19
For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through
him to reconcile to himself all things, whether
things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed
on the cross. NIV
Dan 7:13 "In my vision at night I looked, and there

of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion
that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
NIV
John 5:25 I tell you the truth, a time is coming and

our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of

image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

holy hill." 7 I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me,
"You are my Son;
today I have become your
Father. 8 Ask of me, and I
will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.

Son
of God/manJohn
5:21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even
so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it. 22 Moreover,
the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, 23 that
all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor
the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him. 24 "I tell you the truth,
whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will
not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. John 5:25 I tell
you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear
the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father
has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself. 27
And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man.
