    All too often we give God our second best and not our first.

    Genesis 4:3-7 (KJV) 3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof.

    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

    THIS SERMON SHOWS A PICTURE OF CAIN AND ABEL AND A LOOK AT WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM THEM.

    Raising Cain! Genesis 4:1-16 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 2 And she again bare his brother Abel.

    The true meaning of worshipping in Spirit and Truth as shown in the story of Cain and Abel

    I think we’ve all done it at least one. We get up just a short while before the Sunday morning service, rush to get our clothes on, and zoom out the door we go. Many of you with children know how time consuming just getting the children ready to head out the door can be. I can note many times when ...read more

    Offering is a vital part of Worship: Giving an offering is an ancient act of Man and has become and integral part of Divine Worship. Not all offerings are Acceptable and God-pleasing. They become only Acceptable when we render them to God according to H

    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. Abel died, but through his faith he is still speaking. — Hebrews 11:4 NCV My dad used to have a poster on ...read more

    What's The Significance Of A Shepherd? Series

     | 22,817 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

    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

     | 4,104 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.
