     | 5,677 views

    Today we consider what led to Cain's act of murder. In that we see the cause, the consequences and the cure of sin. And we have to ask ourselves "Am I A Cain?"

    Introductory Considerations 1. Are you a Cain? 2.

    This sermon details the cause of America’s distance from God - all in a context of remembering: the fallen soldiers; our Godly forefathers, and of course, remembering Jesus, our Christ.

    Tomorrow, we will celebrate our nation’s Memorial Day. That is the day we set apart to honor those who have died in the defense of our great nation. Those who gave their all so that we could have it all. Those who made the ultimate sacrifice, so that we might not have to. As we look back into ...read more
