Claim. God’s purpose of creation is the realization of three great blessings given to Adam and Eve in 28: (1) be fruitful (attain individual maturity), (2) multiply (form a God-centered family), and (3) have dominion over creation. These three blessings are fulfilled when the four position foundation is completed with God as center — together constituting the Kingdom of Heaven.

Elaboration. Per 3.1. The Purpose of the Creation of the Universe: “After their creation, God blessed Adam and Eve: ‘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.’ These are the three great blessings: to be fruitful (mature and ready to bear fruit), multiply and have dominion over the creation.”

The structural link: “How can God’s three great blessings be fulfilled? They can be realized only when the four position foundation, which is the fundamental foundation of creation, has been established. The three great blessings are fulfilled when the whole creation, including human beings, completes the four position foundation with God as the center. This is the Kingdom of Heaven, where ultimate goodness is realized and God feels the greatest joy. This is, in fact, the very purpose for which God created the universe” (ibid).

The order matters: individual perfection (first) is prerequisite to family (second), which is prerequisite to legitimate dominion over creation (third). The fall aborted the sequence at the first stage — adam and eve never became mature individuals, so could never form a God-centered family, so could never legitimately rule the natural world. The whole providence of restoration is structured by this aborted order.
