HOW TO BE A CHRISTIAN IN A NON- CHRISTIAN WORLD GENESIS 4:1-16

INTRODUCTION CREATION THE MAKING OF MAN THE CREATION OF FREEDOM THE POWER OF TEMPTATION PARADISE LOST AND REGAINED CAIN AND ABEL

GENESIS 4:16-19 “Then Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife and she conceived, and gave birth to Enoch; and he built a city, and called the name of the city Enoch, after the name of his son. Now to Enoch was born Irad; and Irad became the father of Mehujael; and Mehujael became the father of Methushael; and Methushael became the father of Lamech. And Lamech took to himself two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other was Zillah.

GENESIS 4:20-24 And Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe. As for Zillah, she also gave birth to Tuabal-cain, the forger of all implements of bronze and iron; and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah. And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, “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 And Adam knew his wife again; and she gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, for, she said, “God has appointed me another offspring in place of Abel; for Cain killed him.” And to Seth, to him also a son was born; and he called his name Enosh. THEN MEN BEGAN TO CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD.”

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO CAIN? HE BUILT A FAMILY (Gen. 4:17-24) HE BUILT A CITY (Gen. 4:17) HE BUILT A LEGACY (Gen. 4)

THE RISE OF CIVILIZATION: CAIN BUILT A FAMILY! CAIN ENOCH IRAD (“city of witness”) MEHUJAEL (“smitten of God”) METHUSHAEL (“God is dead”) LAMECH JABAL AND JUBAL TUBAL-CAIN “Then Cain went out from the presence of the Lord.” (4:16)

“…Cain’s wife gave birth to Enoch. And Cain built a city, and called the name of the city Enoch, after the name of his son.” (Genesis 4:17) But God had said to Cain: “…you shall be a fugitive and a wanderer (nomad) on the earth.” (Genesis 4:12)

THE RISE OF CIVILIZATION: THE CORRUPTION OF GOD’S PLAN!

THE RISE OF CIVILIZATION: INCREASE OF LAWLESSNESS!

GOD IS ALWAYS THERE! HOPE AND PROMISE!
