    Our Differences!

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 17, 2022
     | 1,852 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

    You've Been Marked!

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Oct 17, 2023
     | 1,687 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

    Society’s Beginning And Sin’s Painful Results Series

     | 1,067 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

    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

    I Will Not Be Wasted

     | 2,832 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

    Cain murdered Abel. Why? How does God respond? How do we respond differently in a hate and anger filled world? We love.

    5.17.20 Genesis 4:1–16 1 Adam lay with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, “With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man.” 2 Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Cain ...read more

    Many view this book with skepticism, claiming it’s an allegory or myth that’s been fabricated by the ancients to explain their existence and reason for being, but I believe this book to be a literal, historical record...

    The Impact of Sin (Lessons from Cain and Abel) Ge 4:1-16 Our Sunday School lesson today takes us all the way back to the beginning of the Bible, the book of Genesis.

     | 1,240 views

    As Jonah fled from the presence of God, he had no idea as to the consequences he would face. We as a church too must be cautious in many ways so that we do no lose out on the awesome presence of God and His Holy Spirit.

    We read in Jonah 1:3, “But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. And he went down to Joppa. And he found a ship going to Tarshish. And he paid its fare, and went down into it, in order to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.” (AFV) As we continue ...read more

    Leaving well, we journey with God or take our own path. Only one leads to life. His thoughts are not our thoughts and his ways are not our ways.

    So today we have looked at the “Art of Leaving” ...... is back from YWAM and ewill be leaving us again. Why talk about leaving? Because we will be addressing the Exodus of the Hebrew people, the people of Israel from Egypt for a while on coming Sundays. Leaving for you might be a case of ...read more

    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

     | 1,048 views

    The lives of Cain and Abel teach us some important lessons about ourselves and our spiritual lives.

    In the book of Genesis, we find the root and fruit of sin. The root of sin is disbelief and disobedience to God's commands. In Genesis 3, we see Eve doubting God's word and ultimately disobeying Him. In Genesis 4, we witness the consequences of sin through the lives of Cain and Abel. Children learn ...read more

    There is a pattern established by God. That of Sin, judgement and grace. We look at how this is depicted in Genesis chapters 1-20.

    A deep dive into Sin, Judgment and Grace. We started last week's message with a review of the events from creation, up until the birth of Abram who would go onto have his name changed to Abraham, which means The Father of Many.

    Cain And Abel Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 7, 2024
     | 1,338 views

    Even though Abel’s life was short, his faith still speaks. Abel’s blood calls out for justice from God. Our own sin demands justice from God, and it was our sin that put Jesus on the cross. Yet the blood of Jesus speaks a better message. A message of mercy, forgiveness, reconciliation and salvation.

    As we continue in our Dust to Life series, we will be looking at Genesis chapter 4 today, the account of the first two brothers in human history: Cain and Abel. Genesis 4:1-16 1 Now the man had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain, and she said, “I have obtained a ...read more
