    A look at Cain and Abel’s offerings to see why one was acceptable and the other was not.

    Two shopkeepers were bitter rivals. Their stores were directly across the street from each other, and they would spend each day keeping track of each other’s business. If one got a customer, he would smile in triumph at his rival. One night an angel appeared to one of the shopkeepers in a dream ...read more

    The testimony of the blood of Jesus bring justification to the believer, just as the cry of Abel’s blood condemned Cain.

    This sermon deals with the purity that God calls us from within.

    "Pleasing God in My Desires" Gal.5:19, Gen 4:1-8 Now if you have your bible with you this morning I want you to turn to Gen.4:1 with me this and as you do, I want you think about this question, "If you could have one desire fulfilled in your life and know that you would get it, what would it ...read more

    What's The Significance Of A Shepherd? Series

    Contributed by Scott Chambers on Jan 5, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 22,971 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

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 22, 2009
     | 5,378 views

    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

    Escaping Temptations

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,163 views

    We see Cain yielding to sin and falling bait to it just because of his heart condition. He did not take any stand to rule over it or run from it. He just yielded. For Cain (and for us) there is an exit on every level of temptation, and we need to see the

    Opening illustration: When we sin we often do so with the futile hope that we shall obtain the maximum amount of pleasure at the minimum penalty. It seldom works that way, however. I once heard the story of a man and his wife who decided to go to a drive-in movie. They thought the price was too ...read more

    Another sermon about people who had a lot to tell but little was written about them. The difference between Cain and Able.

    Cain and Able: A shepherd and a farmer Theme: Text: Introduction There are numerous names mentioned in the Bible. Some are just names written to show the progress of a generation. Others have a little bit more history and meaning. Then there are the great men. Men we know such as ...read more

     | 8,640 views

    Firstfruits is intended to be about giving, real giving, not God taking it from you, but learning why God wants you to give, how He designed us to be givers….And perhaps the most important teaching about giving is the one we miss the most. Is that God wa

    Imagine the following two scenarios (act out) Scenario 1 - I know Christmas is about 2 months away, but I just couldn’t wait…you know I love you, you are so good to me, you treat me so much better than I deserve, and there is no gift that can repay you for all you have done for me, I wanted to give ...read more

    An Acceptable Offering

    Let’s see if we can look at these offerings from God’s perspective and maybe we can make some conclusions that may help us better offer our sacrifices to God.

    An Acceptable Offering Genesis 4:1-4:8 Two shopkeepers were bitter rivals. Their stores were directly across the street from each other, and they would spend each day keeping track of each other¡¦s business. If one got a customer, he would smile in triumph at his rival.

    This is the first in a series of CSI messages and looks at what we can learn from Cain and Abel

    It should have brought them together but instead it tore them apart. They both worshipped the same God, they had both offered their God a sacrifice and that is where it seemed to fall apart. Cain was a farmer, he toiled in the dirt and raised crops, his younger brother was a shepherd, and he ...read more

    From Hebrews 11 as well Abel teaches us, Giving is a part of our relationship with God, Your giving gives you away, giving bears witness.

    What offering are you giving the Lord?

    INTRO: A hen and a pig approached a church and read the advertised sermon topic: “What can we do to help the poor?” Immediately the hen suggested they feed them bacon and eggs. The pig thought for a moment and said, “There is only one thing wrong with feeding bacon and eggs to the poor. For you it ...read more

    Second in the Heroes of Faith series from Hebrews 11, this sermon is about Abel.

    Chapter 1 Abel It was by faith that Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. God said he was pleased with the gifts Abel offered and called Abel a good man because of his faith.

    Introduction We live in a time that some have called ‘the season of the knife’. Twenty seven London teenagers have been murdered this year so far.
