1) The document discusses Cain and Abel from the Bible and their different spiritual seeds or nature. Cain was angry his sacrifice was not accepted by God while Abel's was. 2) Cain then murdered Abel out of jealousy. God cursed Cain to become a wanderer and the land would no longer yield crops for him. 3) The document warns that those who practice sin are of the devil, and people must avoid sin and fleeing from God like Cain did in order to receive God's protection and blessings.

Spiritual Seed Genesis 4
Big Idea …sin is crouching at the door; and its desire is for you, but you must master it. Genesis 4:7b 2
Spiritual Seed Genesis 4
Spiritual Seeds And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel. Genesis 3:15 4
The Serpent’s Seed You serpents, you brood of vipers, how will you escape the sentence of hell? Therefore, behold, I am sending you prophets and wise men and scribes; some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues, Matthew 23:33–35 5
The Serpent’s Seed and persecute from city to city, so that upon you may fall the guilt of all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. Matthew 23:33–35 6
The Serpent’s Seed You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. John 8:44 7
You are somebody's child No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother. 1 John 3:9–10 8
The First Brothers Now the man had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain, and she said, “I have gotten a manchild with the help of the LORD.” Again, she gave birth to his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of flocks, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. Genesis 4:1–2 9
Meet the boys Cain- gotten; special gift helped by YHWH Became a farmer Abel- breath or vapor (His shortened life?) Shepherd 10
Back to the story So it came about in the course of time that Cain brought an offering to the LORD of the fruit of the ground. Abel, on his part also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of their fat portions. Genesis 4:3–4 11
The result And the LORD had regard for Abel and for his offering; Genesis 4:4b 12
Not the quality of the offering but the offeror By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained the testimony that he was righteous, God testifying about his gifts, and through faith, though he is dead, he still speaks. Hebrews 11:4 13
Spiritual Seed 1 4 you have been born again not of perishable seed but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God. 1 Peter 1:23
Different in everyway but for Cain and for his offering He had no regard. So Cain became very angry and his countenance fell. Genesis 4:5 15
Different offerings Animals-sheep bull goat dove pigeon Meal-flour oil frankincense grain wine Animals Produce Valuables 16
It’s always been about the heart “Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of divination, And insubordination is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He has also rejected you…” 1 Samuel 15:22–23 17
The Lord’s invitation to talk Then the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? Genesis 4:6 18
Anger Jesus said anger equal's murder Ephesians 4:26–27…BE ANGRY, AND yet DO NOT SIN; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and do not give the devil an opportunity. James 4:7 Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 19
God’s voice of reason If you do well, will not your countenance be lifted up? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door; and its desire is for you, but you must master it. Genesis 4:7 20
Wild Animal Sin is crouching at the door Crouching is used of the demonic in OT 1 Peter 5:8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 21
It wants to consume you like prey its desire is for you, but you must master it. 22
We are not helpless puppets Submit…to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. James 4:7 23
Plan to Overcoming Sin 1. Identify your flaws and weaknesses 2. Make a plan with goals 3. Practice discipline and discipleship 4. Celebrate success 24
Murder at heart Cain told Abel his brother. And it came about when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him. Genesis 4:8 25
Spiritual Seed Commentary …the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. By this the children of God 1 John 3:8–12 26
Spiritual Seed Commentary and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother. For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another; not as Cain, who was of the evil one and slew his brother. And 1 John 3:8–12 27
Spiritual Seed Commentary for what reason did he slay him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s were righteous. 1 John 3:8–12 28
Stop Don’t practice sin! Even small sin. Don’t trade your adoption into the family of God for entrance into the kingdom of darkness. 29
Avoidance Then the LORD said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” And he said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?” Genesis 4:9 30
God knows all He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to Me from the ground. Genesis 4:10 31
Quite a curse for a farmer Now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. When you cultivate the ground, it will no longer yield its strength to you; you will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth. Genesis 4:11–12 32
Real Fear Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is too great to bear! Behold, You have driven me this day from the face of the ground; and from Your face I will be hidden, and I will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.” Genesis 4:13–14 33
Natural and Supernatural Consequences 3 4  Barren Ground  Barren Spirit
God offers protection “Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” And the LORD appointed a sign for Cain, so that no one finding him would slay him. Genesis 4:15 35
Sad Then Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden. Genesis 4:16 36
Rebellion against the Lord Woe to them! For they have gone the way of Cain, and for pay they have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. Jude 11 37
The Cain Family Had a wife Had children Built a community Population grew Invented polygamy 38
The Last One Mentioned Lamech said, “…Listen to my voice, You wives of Lamech, Give heed to my speech, For I have killed a man for wounding me; And a boy for striking me; If Cain is avenged sevenfold, Then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.” Genesis 4:23–24 39
