Genesis Chapter 4

 

The __________________ of birth                                                      V. 1

 

 

The Lord expects us to bring our best to Him, not _____________ V. 3-5

 

Notice 2 things the Lord respected:

 

Hebrews 11:4                  I John 3:12

 

Genesis 3:21                    Hebrews 9:22                  Leviticus 17:11

 

 

The Lord speaks the truth in love to Cain                                         V. 6-7

 

Verse 7 is a great verse in our efforts at what John Owen called, “the ____________________ of sin.”

 

I Corinthians 10:12-14a

 

 

The first murder in the Bible                                                              V. 8

 

We learn a lot here about the world we live in. One of the consequences of sin in the world is that the Lord does allow the sinful choices of people to __________________ affect the lives of others.

 

 

We ARE our brother’s keeper                                                          V. 9-10

 

What is Abel’s blood crying out for in verse 10?

 

So here we have another thing we understand right at the beginning of the Bible – the ______________ inside of us for justice is a universal principle, part of how we are wired. It is there because Genesis 1-3 is the truth!

 

 

 

 

God will ________________ sin                                                      V. 11-12

 

How do you balance the call for Capital punishment with the words of Jesus to forgive and turn the other cheek?

 

 

God still shows His ________________                                              V. 15

 

 

Where did Cain get his wife?                                                             V. 17

 

Verse 24 is just the kind of _______________ statement you’d expect as the effects of our sin nature unfold.

 

 

God appoints another ___________________                               V. 25-26

 

Luke 3:38/ Genesis 3:15

 

 

 

Then men began to call upon the name of the Lord

 

 

Whoever call on the name of the Lord will be saved.    -Romans 10:13
