    Envy - A Perverted Love

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Nov 13, 2022
     | 2,161 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

    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

    Cain and Abel may have been twins.

    GENESIS 4:8 “A TWIN MURDER” A) I read that the murder rate in the United States is more than one per hour every day of the year. * In all the wars in the nation’s history, 530,000 United States combatants have been killed. B) But since 1900, there have been more than 800,000 ...read more

    When you feel anger, behave yourself, admit your sin, and depend on Christ.

    For weeks, a couple had been arguing about buying a vehicle. He wanted a truck. She wanted a fast little sports car so she could zip through traffic around town. He would have been satisfied with any old, beat-up old truck, but everything she wanted was way out of their price range. “Look!” she ...read more

    Recipient Of God's Favor

    If you are recipient of God’s favor, you could further expect at least two things. What are those?

    “Now Cain said to his brother Abel, ‘Let’s go out to the field.’ While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him. Then the LORD said to Cain, ‘Where is your brother Abel?’ ‘I don’t know,’ he replied. ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’ The LORD said, ‘What have you done? Listen! ...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
     | 2,179 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.

    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
     | 2,113 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

     | 3,135 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

    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?

    Sin's Blood-Stained Progression

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 18, 2023
     | 1,269 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

    No Comparison Today I’d like to tell a few stories from the Bible, As well as read some of the Bible’s teachings concerning comparisons.

    The Impact Of Sin (Lessons From Cain And Abel)

    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.
