    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
     | 2,049 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

    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

    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

    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.

    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

     | 1,226 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
