    A Tale Of Two Brothers

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 271 ratings
     | 27,301 views

    How we relate to God affects how we relate to others: Because Cain didn't have a right relationship with God, his relationship with his brother Abel was not right either.

    For a number of years, one of my favorite TV shows was "Murder, She Wrote" with Angela Lansbury. Now, I could never figure out how so many murders could happen in that little New England village of Cabot Cove, but there was something captivating about trying to figure out "who done it" before the ...read more

    Hebrews 11 tells What Faith IS and what Faith DOES. Biblical faith will Worship (Abel), Walk (Enoch), Work (Noah), and Wait (Abraham)

    God-Pleasing Faith Hebrews 11 SCRIPTURE READING: Hebrews 11:1-6 INTRODUCTION: Everyone has faith. A Houston Pastor named John Bisagno put it this way: "Faith is the heart of life. You go to a doctor whose name you can’t pronounce. He gives you a prescription you cannot read. You take it to ...read more

    Genesis 4 - Part 1 - How Can I Know That I Am Accepted? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 14, 2011
    based on 9 ratings
     | 5,099 views

    A woman I visited yesterday in hospital asked me "How do I know that I am ACCEPTED BY GOD?" In the OT Abel's offering was ACCEPTED and Cain's offering was not. Why?

    Genesis 4 - "HOW CAN I KNOW THAT I AM ACCEPTED?" They had behaved badly in class but they were equally disruptive in the detention room, swearing, acting tough and defying anything I said with a smart comment. Unacceptable behaviour. I have never really had a problem with anger, but the closest I ...read more

    What makes for genuine faith?

    By Faith Hebrews 11:1-16 Today we look at the 11th chapter of Hebrews which is often known as the “faith chapter.” In it are many examples of people who remained faithful to the LORD under the most difficult and impossible of situations.

    Hands That Shed Innocent Blood

     | 12,198 views

    God’s image is debased and his wrath justly incited every time a person(innocent blood) made in God’s image is unjustly destroyed. Approximately, there are 200.000 abortions per day worldwide (WHO).What blood could be more innocent than the blood of an unborn child?

    You Shall Not Murder Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 21, 2021
     | 3,018 views

    The Bible’s opening plotlines show the firstborn man, Cain, killing his brother Abel. Think of it: the firstborn person in the human race was a murderer.

    Contrary to many people’s thoughts that civilization is more civilized, evidence suggests that murder is on the increase. In 1963, in Scotland, two people were convicted of murder. In 2000, there were 128 reported homicides in Scotland. In 1960, the District of Columbia reported 81 murders. In 1991 ...read more

    Sentence Pronounced On Cain Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 1, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,900 views

    There is, as usual, a grain of truth mingled with the amazing falsehood of this surly response. No man is the absolute keeper of his brother, to the extent he is responsible for his safety when he is not present. This is what Cain means to insinuate.

    September 27, 2013 Commentary on the Book of Genesis By: Tom Lowe Lesson I.C.2: Sentence Pronounced on Cain Gen. 4.9-15 (KJV) 9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper? 10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy ...read more

    Manos Que Derraman Sangre Inocente

    Contributed by James Dina on Aug 7, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 41,869 views

    La imagen de Dios se degrada y su ira incita con justicia cada vez que una persona (sangre inocente) es injustamente destruida. Con 125.000 abortos diarios en todo el mundo (OMS), ¿qué sangre podría ser más inocente que la sangre de un feto?

    MANOS QUE DERRAMAN SANGRE INOCENTE "...no sea que se derrame sangre inocente en medio de tu tierra que el SEÑOR tu Dios te da en herencia, y así la culpa del derramamiento de sangre sea sobre ti" (Deuteronomio 19:10) Una de las cosas más malvadas que existen es ...read more

    A Faith That Still Speaks Series

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 26, 2025
     | 135 views

    This sermon contrasts Abel's faith-based worship with Cain's self-reliant religion, demonstrating how a life of true faith earns God's approval and creates an eternal legacy that still speaks of righteousness today.

    Introduction: The World's First Worship Service I want you to travel back with me in your imagination to the dawn of human history. The gates of Eden are closed, guarded by an angel with a flaming sword. The world is brand new, yet already stained by sin. Adam and Eve, our first parents, are ...read more

    Sin's Blood-Stained Progression

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 18, 2023
     | 1,159 views

    The tragic story of Cain and Abel did not have to happen if only Cain had controlled his emotions and listened to the counsel of God. Instead, we witness the first murder and the further progression of humanity's rebellion and wickedness.

    In the first verses of Genesis 4, we are introduced to two sons of Adam and Eve, two attitudes of reverence towards God, one act of obedience, one act of defiance, a refusal to heed sound advice, and the horrendous consequences of rebellion. We witness remorse, selfish concern, and the gradual ...read more

    This is a reality check. When you're surprised by the challenges of the Christian life and even tempted to quit, consider how the people who are part of Faith's Hall of Fame lived.

    This past week we all heard about another horrific tragedy on the border. Three people died and 25 were injured as smugglers attempted to bring dozens of illegal immigrants into the U.S. via boat along the California Coast.

    Sermon # 41 - The Power Of Reconciliation Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 26, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,323 views

    If we harbor hatred or bitterness in our hearts, it leads to disharmony, dissension, bickering and slander amongst brothers. God’s word teaches us how to root out bitterness and be reconciled to one another so there is perfect peace and harmony amongst us.

    Esau reconciled with Jacob We read in Genesis 33:4, “When Esau saw Jacob, he ran to meet him. He put his arms around Jacob, hugged his neck, and kissed him. Then they both cried.” (ERV) The above mentioned verse portrays what transpired between Esau and Jacob who were twin brothers, when they met ...read more
