    based on 1 rating
     | 2,329 views

    Our mind is a battleground. The battle to become more like Jesus takes place in our mind. There are mind monsters that we must confront. It is time to turn on the light!

    I. Introduction The Scare Factory illustrated in Monsters Inc. is still in full effect. However, rather than harvesting the screams of children to power the city of "Monstropolis", the monsters in this scare factory harvests our peace and our sanity. Adam and Eve fall in the Garden and ...read more

    Cain & Abel Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Feb 11, 2022
     | 2,998 views

    We can properly approach God as seen through 1) The Characters (Gen. 4:1-12), 2) The Crime (Gen. 4:3-8) and finally 3) The Consequences (Gen. 4:9-16).

    Genesis 4:1-16. [4:1] Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, saying, "I have gotten a man with the help of the LORD." [2] And again, she bore his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain a worker of the ground. [3] In the course of time Cain brought to ...read more

    Society’s Beginning And Sin’s Painful Results Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Mar 6, 2023
     | 1,212 views

    Society began much like it exists today – choices, sin, and failure to repent. But, we must see that we don’t need to continue like this! We CAN choose to live differently and be free from sin's consequences.

    Alpha and Omega, Part 10 Society’s beginning and sin’s painful results Genesis 4:1-16 Principle of “GROW” for 2023: Do you know someone that could use an invite to Seasons? If you’d like to provide their name and address, we'd be happy to reach out to them by sending a letter and ...read more

    Giving By Faith Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 8, 2023
     | 2,477 views

    Our giving, when in the right attitude brings us closer to God. We worship when we give our gifts to God.

    God desires us to give our best. This is called giving the first fruits. This means the first agricultural produce of a season, especially when given as an offering to God. It applies to more than agriculture but giving our first and best to God. The idea that God wants us to give Him our best ...read more

    Our Differences!

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 17, 2022
     | 2,059 views

    One of the things that we often talk about is the differences among people.

    For example, we often see: (1) GENDER DIFFERENCES The differences between men and women are noticeable differences. I am not talking about the physical differences, but our behavioral differences. For example: • Men are Vain. Before they go somewhere, they will check themselves out in the ...read more

    Envy - A Perverted Love

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Nov 13, 2022
     | 2,071 views

    This message is about how we sometimes find ourselves desiring something that belongs to someone else and in the process becoming resentful of the one who has what we desire.

    Envy – A Perverted Love Scripture: Genesis 4:1-8; Proverbs 14:30; Mark 7:20-23; Luke 6:45 The title of my message this morning is “Envy – A Perverted Love.” Let me tell you a story. There was a man who had a brother whom you would assume that he loved. One day both brothers brought an offering ...read more

    Genesis Chapter Four Series

     | 2,392 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Four. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER FOUR OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that the effects of sin is shown to the third generation of Adam. Matthew Henry (1714) – Genesis 4 In this chapter we have both the world and the church in a family, in a little family, in Adam's family, and a ...read more

    In this lesson, we will examine the variety of lessons learned by Adam and Eve, as well as by every parent, from the heartbreaking decisions made by Cain.

    Introduction: We have already seen the impact of Adam’s fatal decision, which plunged mankind into sin, as well as the effect of the curse upon the lives of Adam and Eve. In this lesson, we will examine the variety of lessons learned by Adam and Eve, as well as by every parent, from the ...read more

    Sin That Crouched At The Door Series

     | 7,345 views

    Why would Cain kill Abel, and what can we learn from his failure?

    Years ago when I was at Purdue I decided to read the Bible for myself. So, I bought myself a Bible Commentary, and a Bible Dictionary, and I made a deal with God: I told Him I’d read everything but the poetry, the prophecy, and the “who-begat-whos.” I set my Bible and study books out where I ...read more

    Sin's Blood-Stained Progression

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 18, 2023
     | 1,179 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

    You've Been Marked!

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 1,861 views

    God marked Cain for protection after Cain killed his brother Abel. The mark on Cain is a sign of a cursed spirit, yet at the same time a symbol of God’s mercy, an assurance for us that wherever we have been, whatever we have become, God still loves us, God still longs for us.

    There were these 2 brothers who asked their parents, “Why can’t we live in that beautiful garden with all kinds of animals and fruit-bearing trees?”. The mother replied, “Because when your dad and I were young, we were foolish and disobeyed its creator. We were expelled from that place created ...read more

    The Sad, Sad Decision Of Cain, The Firstborn Of Adam And Eve (Expanded) – Genesis Chapter 4; Jude 1:12 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 16, 2022
     | 1,958 views

    When Jude deals with the ravenous wolves of the false teachers, his thoughts go to three vile people in the Old Testament. Today I am doing only one of those even though we touched on it in the past. Cain is the disobedient and murderous one. We will examine the story in more detail.

    THE SAD, SAD DECISION OF CAIN, THE FIRSTBORN OF ADAM AND EVE (EXPANDED) – GENESIS CHAPTER 4 Jude 1:12 There was an earlier massage that contained Cain and Korah together. Now Cain alone is expanded. Today we look at Cain. {{Jude 1 v 11 “Woe to them for they have gone the way of Cain, and for ...read more

    Real Fair Dinkum Lowlifes – Reprobates Covered In Greed And Rebellion – Jude 1:11(A) Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 13, 2022
     | 2,018 views

    Jude continues his description of the false teachers who were causing so much havoc. In this message he likens them to Cain, the self-willed, murderous one; and to Korah and his followers who were rebellious. False teaching is destructive.

    REAL FAIR DINKUM LOWLIFES – REPROBATES COVERED IN GREED AND REBELLION – Jude 1:11(a) Jude 1:11 Woe to them for they have gone the way of Cain, and for pay, they have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.

     | 3,528 views

    At times, some devoted people are cut off before their time, but if God's children can pray and be discerning, untimely deaths could be avoided.

    From the Genesis 4 story, we see that: • Waste could come from jealousy and anger (Gen. 4:5). • Jealousy could develop into enmity. • Enmity could arise from within, as Cain and Abel were brothers. • Enmity could arise from without, as Peter and King Herod were not related - Acts 12:1-19 o Pray ...read more
