    Violence existed from the dawn of human history. The first child born to the human family was a murderer. Genesis begans with creation and ends in a coffin. The wages of sin began immediately after the fall.

    A sermon on how to realize favor with God.

    The T-shirt I have in my hand was a gift and I love what it says, “Jesus Loves You, But I’m His favorite.” You know it’s true, but I’m not saying that in an arrogant or prideful way, no I’m saying that in a very practical matter of fact way. What did I do to ...read more

    Cain and Abel’s story demonstrates the power of offerings to reveal relationships and invite or reject God’s greatest blessings.

    (Thanks to Dr. Roger Thomas for ideas for this lesson from his sermon on Genesis 4: "I Did it My Way") We began a series on offerings, sacrifices and God’s blessings last week. This morning we will look at the first offerings mentioned in scripture and how things turned out with that. Genesis 4 ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,324 views

    Genesis 4:1-16 gives a picture of faith and how it is only by genuine faith through an approved sacrifice, that we can approach God. The rejection of this means rejection by God Himself.

    Canada made international news recently for the Shafia murder trial. What should have been a refuge for the healthy development of family, became an environment for intimidation that eventually lead to murder. A misplaced understanding of honor, resulted in the murder of siblings. Tooba Mohammad ...read more

    Is the prohibition of gambling in the Covenant of Christian Conduct just a legalistic rule or a natural outflow of loving God completely and love others as ourselves?

    A year or so ago we took several months to review the sixteen Articles of Faith found in the Manual of the Church of The Nazarene. These subjects included what we believe about the Triune God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the Holy Scriptures, Sin, Atonement, Salvation, the Church, the Sacraments, the ...read more

    1. He was half-hearted towards God. 2. His Decision was based on his OWN MIGHT. 3. He did not follow the PLAN of God. 4. He became SLAVE by his own sins. 5. Cain was easily OFFENDED. 6. He HATED his brother. 7. He ran away from his CALLING!

    Scripture: Genesis 4:9-12 (NIV) 9 Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" "I don’t know," he replied. "AM I MY BROTHER’S KEEPER?" 10 The LORD said, "What have you done? Listen!

    Why was Cain’s sacrifice unacceptable to God?

    GENESIS 4:1 Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, “I have acquired a man from the LORD.” 2 Then she bore again, this time his brother Abel. Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3 And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain ...read more

    What's The Significance Of A Shepherd? Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 23,040 views

    This message looks at the significance of the shepherd and how it is essential to understanding God’s plan for church leadership.

    The image of the shepherd seems somewhat irrelevant to modern Americans. Without a doubt this makes it quite difficult to communicate God’s plan for church leadership. The picture of the shepherd fails to connect with us in the modern church. Shepherds would have been as common to the original ...read more

    Marked Men

    Cain’s problem is ours: we are fearful and anxious if someone else seems to be getting ahead of us, and our anxiety is the root of our violence. But in God’s curse there is a mercy and a clue for brotherliness.

    For today’s message we are going back to the earliest moments in human history to look at one of the most basic issues in human life. We are looking at the way we feel about differences, and what we do about that feeling. The Book of Genesis, in its opening stories, teaches us about what it means ...read more
