CAIN AND ABEL

GENESIS
CHAPTER 4

CAIN AND ABEL WERE THE FIRST TWO SONS
THAT ADAM AND EVE HAD.

ADAM AND EVE HAD MANY, MANY CHILDREN AND

LIVED FOR OVER 900 YEARS!

GOD USED THEM TO POPULATE THE EARTH.

GENESIS CHAPTER 5.
Cain was born first. Cain was a tiller
of the ground, this means he was a
farmer.

Abel was a shepherd. He took care of

sheep and animals of like nature.
God showed Adam and Eve and their boys
the value of bringing a living creature for
sacrifice to the Lord.

Parents are commanded by God to teach

their children about the Lord. Children
are commanded to listen!
 God was well pleased with Abels
offering.
God was not happy with Cains
offering. The Bible says that Cain
was very angry with Gods
response.

Cain chose to bring his best to God,

instead of obeying his word.

What was happening within

Eph.2:8-9
Cains
heart?
The Bible says our hearts are
very wicked.

Jeremiah chapter 17 verse 9

 God sees our sinfulness.
Romans 3:23

God questioned Cain about the state of

his heart and gave him a loving
warning. If he would turn from his
sinfulness he would be accepted.

00
Are we any different from Cain?
 Cain rejected Gods kindness.

A wrong attitude produced a

wrong action.
 God knew what Cain had done, He gave
Cain opportunity to confess his wicked
deed, by asking what had happened to
Abel.
Cain replied, I know not, am I my brothers
baby sitter?

CAN WE HIDE NUMBERS

OUR SIN 32:23

FROM
GOD?
 Cain was still not
willing to repent.

God cursed Cain from

the face of the earth.

Even then Cain

complained about
his punishment and
felt sorry for himself
instead of being
sorry for his sin.
God is a God of love, but he
must punish sin.

=
GOD SHOWED KINDNESS TO CAIN BY
GIVING HIM A MARK, SO THAT ANY
WHO FOUND HIM WOULD NOT KILL
HIM.

HOW HAS GOD SHOWED HIS

KINDNESS TO US TODAY?
Without the shedding of blood there is
no forgiveness. Heb. 9:22

Do we need to sacrifice animals to God

today?
THE SON OF GOD
WHO LOVE ME AND
GAVE HIMSELF
FOR ME.

GALATIONS 2:20
SADLY THE BIBLE SAYS: CAIN WENT
OUT FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE
LORD.
 Whos example will you
follow?

Cain or Abel

Gods way? Your way?

John 14:6
