Sin in the Seed - Genesis 4:1-12

Описание: In Genesis 4, life outside the garden begins. It starts off hopeful, with Eve giving birth to Cain and Abel. But any hopes of either son being the promised Gen 3:15 offspring of the woman—the seed who would crush the serpent’s head and restore God’s fallen creation—are short lived. Cain gives into sin, murders his brother Abel, and is sentenced by God to wander the earth as a fugitive in exile. Friends, as we continue tracing Adam’s family line this Sunday, we’ll confront the devastating power of sin and our desperate need for Christ—and for one another—so we don’t follow the path of Cain: cut off from home, family, and ultimately, from God Himself. Would you join us in praying that God would speak powerfully through His Word this Sunday, causing us to repent of any crouching sins in our lives so we can walk in righteousness? Soli Deo Gloria!

Big Idea: The power of sin is great, but the power of the Savior is greater.

1. Sin's worship (1-5)

2. Sin's power (5b-8)

3. Sin's end (9-12)

Preparation Questions: Genesis 4:1-12

1. Does your worship ever feel hollow or routine, like you're just going through the motions? What might that reveal about your current relationship with God in Christ—and why is that spiritually dangerous?

2. Have you personally witnessed or experienced the destructive power of sin in your life? What were the consequences, and what steps are you taking now to guard against falling into the same patterns again?

3. What is the ultimate outcome for those who remain in their sin? What has God provided as the way out—and what responsibility do we have in helping others find it?

4. What specific things did Christ do to make sure our story doesn’t end like Cain’s? Do you have confidence and assurance that His redemption includes you? If so, why?
