CARNALLY MINDEDNESS

THE FALL OF CAIN

Part 2: TILLER OF THE GROUND

Lesson 1 - CARNALLY MINDEDNESS

In this part of the series, we will get to know some of the works which caused Cain to fall. God actually did not want Cain to fall from His glory but due to certain actions he (Cain) managed to backslide majestically. “So the Lord said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it."” (Gen. 4:6-7)

TRIUMPH AFTER ENDURANCE

In the 1900’s the British queen Victoria resided in Ghana. She conducted the slave trade and ruled in the name of the United Kingdom. One day she ordered the capture of King Prempeh who was the last of the Ashanti Kings and this stirred up Queen mother Yaa Asantewaa to mobilize her people to go and fight the British soldiers. Yaa Asantewaa and her people knew that the soldiers had guns and explosives but in the face of all that THEY STOOD FIRM AND FOUGHT because they knew that they were entitled to their freedom.

IN THE MIDST OF SORROW?

Sorrow has beset us round about, that we often want to ask, “So God, are you really watching?” Our inherited nature (of sin) has somewhat tuned our lives into the frequency of sorrow. “Man who is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble.” (Job 14:1) The days of mankind on earth is few yet filled with various problems until death says sound sleep.
