The Covenant (Gen 8:21-22; 9:8-13). Because the hearts of men had become fully given to do evil, judgment was necessary. Even so, through judgment He gave the earth a new beginning. From time to time, He would have to judge cities, regions, or cultures, but here He made His first covenant with man: He would […]

Mankind’s Great Calling If we abide in Him, there is no flood that can overcome us. In Him, there is a peace that no storm can penetrate. He is the Fortress that no enemy can ever conquer. When you are confronted by situations where you know that destruction is coming, do not just run from

Today @2:20 a.m. is the full moon. Mankind’s Great Calling However, there has always been a remnant that Satan was unable to corrupt, who the Lord could use to continue moving men toward His ultimate purpose. There are many individuals, families, churches, and movements that have had a high calling which the enemy has likewise

Read (Gen 6:13-14,17-19,22). Mankind’s Great Calling Last month we consider the issue of the Nephlim and Noah. The Lord\’s patience is beyond comprehension. In Rev 2:20-21, we see that the Lord even gave Jezebel “time to repent.” However, the very patience of the Lord is in itself a type of judgment. See Eccl 8:11. The

According to the Gregorian calendar, July is the seventh (7th) month. The month of July is called AB in Hebrew. It is equivalent to the fifth (5th) Jewish sacred calendar month. It is reckoned as the eleventh (11th) month with reference to the Jewish civil calendar. It was called “QUlNTILIS” in Latin meaning ‘fifth’. Julius

Noah and the Nephilim Now it came about, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose. Then the LORD said, “My Spirit shall not

The love of God After Enosh was born, we are told that it was then men began to call upon the name of the Lord. The Hebrew word for “call” that is used here is qara, which indicates more than just calling out to Him. It also implies that they began “proclaiming,” or “acknowledging,” the

They Called Upon the Lord And Adam had relations with 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

Deal with your short comings Even so, the Lord had mercy on Cain. He gave him a mark that would serve to protect him. Throughout the history of God\’s dealings with mankind, He has been quick to show unmerited grace and mercy to us. His grace and mercy is even enough for Him to negate

Departing from the Lord And Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is too great to bear!  “Behold, Thou hast driven me this day from the face of the ground; and from Thy face I shall be hidden, and I shall be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth, and it will come about

King David lived under the law, so the only way the curse could be removed because of Saul\’s sin was to let the Gibeonites have revenge on Saul\’s house. Under the law it was an “eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth” (see Ex 21:24). However, we are no longer under the

Then the LORD said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” And he said, “I do not know. Am I my brother\’s keeper?”  And He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother\’s blood is crying to Me from the ground.  “And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its

Love is the truth that will ultimately overcome jealousy. We are told in 1 Cor 13:4-8: Love is patient, love is kind, and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,

Jealousy and Murder And 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 (Gen 4:8). When there were just two brothers on the earth, they could not get along. In the legend story, there were just two cars

It is noteworthy that the Lord did not tell Cain to stop doing what is wrong, but to simply “do right.” Legalists will focus on getting people to stop doing what is wrong, but the Lord emphasized the positive, doing what is right. As Jesus taught us, loving God and our neighbors is the fulfillment

Sin and Depression Then the LORD said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? “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” (Gen

We are told in James 3:16, “For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing.” The true root of almost every division within the church is jealousy. Men may use differences in doctrines and other things as excuses, but at the root of them will usually be jealousy. It is

The Offering 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.” And again, she gave birth to his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of flocks, but Cain was a tiller of

The whole tenor of Scripture reveals that God is a family man, and building His family is fundamental to what He is doing in the earth. He is repeatedly referred to as our Father, and we are His children. However, there can be no Father, or children, without a mother. Paul lamented in 1 Cor

The Exile Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate

The Exile Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate

The Covering Now the man called his wife\’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all the living. And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them (Gen 3:20-21). These Scriptures clearly state that His blood cleanses us from all sin and from all unrighteousness. For us

The Covering Now the man called his wife\’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all the living. And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them (Gen 3:20-21). This is considered the first prophecy of the atonement sacrifice of Christ. Adam and Eve had tried to

All relationships are built on trust. In our fallen nature, we exercise authority for our own selfish reasons. As we are changed, and begin to grow in the love of God, authority is exercised for the sake of others. As authority is exercised in love, the bridge of trust is built step by step. Because

The Curse on the Man Then to Adam He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it’; Cursed is the ground because of you; In toil you shall eat of it all the days

The Curse on the Woman To the woman He said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth, in pain you shall bring forth children; yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you” (Gen 3:16). The Lord created the man and woman to procreate, but childbirth was not intended

For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind set on

The Curse on the Serpent And the LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field; on your belly shall you go, and dust shall you eat all the days of your life; and I will put enmity

Blaming Others And the man said, “The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave me from the tree, and I ate.” The Lord does not forgive excuses; He forgives sin. He is always ready to forgive us if we repent. To repent is to acknowledge that it is our fault, and we

Blaming Others And the man said, “The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave me from the tree, and I ate.” Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate” (Gen 3:12-13). The man said that
