        Issue #: 8   
      
      
      
        In the last article we went over the death of Abel.   Murder such as   
      
        this started from the disobedience from when Adam and Eve were in   
      
        the garden.  Do as God commands you to so, without question and you   
      
        will be just fine.  Defy him and go agaist what he says and he'll   
      
        have wrath written all over you until you repent.  Now Cain is on   
      
        the Lord's side by the fear in Cain's eyes, he knew he would be next   
      
        if something wasn't done.  So there was a deal made there.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:16  And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and   
      
                        dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.    
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:17  And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare   
      
                        Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of   
      
                        the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.    
      
      
      
        For God's great justice, Cain is protected and now has a child and   
      
        a city even named after him, named Enoch.  Generations pass...   
      
      
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:18  And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat   
      
                        Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and   
      
                        Methusael begat Lamech.    
      
      
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:19  And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the   
      
                        one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.    
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:20  And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as   
      
                        dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:21  And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father   
      
                        of all such as handle the harp and organ.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:22  And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer   
      
                        of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister   
      
                        of Tubalcain was Naamah.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:23  And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah,   
      
                        Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my   
      
                        speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a   
      
                        young man to my hurt.    
      
       
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:24  If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech   
      
                        seventy and sevenfold.   
      
                
      
        This linage of family seems to have a familiarity in common and that   
      
        is murderers.  Since God's beautiful creation, two men have already   
      
        been killed.  It seems to be out of anger and jealousy.  It's not   
      
        the point that you're just forgiven like that, you must put away   
      
        your selfish acts and turn from them.  Start finding your spiritual   
      
        gifts and live the most with them.   
      
       
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:25  And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son,   
      
                        and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath   
      
                        appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom   
      
                        Cain slew.    
      
      
      
        Since Cain got another chance to do right, Adam and Eve have another   
      
        son and they called him Seth.  Seth had replaced Abel.  I just hope   
      
        this time Cain understands and does not let it greif take the best   
      
        of him.     
      
      
      
        (KJV) Psa 37:4  Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give   
      
                        thee the desires of thine heart.   
      
      
      
        (KJV) Gen 4:26  And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and   
      
                        he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon   
      
                        the name of the LORD.     
      
      
      
        This concludes this teaching.  Later we wil resume on Genesis   
      
        Chapter 5.  I hope you've been blessed and enlightened.  Where there   
      
        is a will there is a way.  Look for the Lord through his teachings.   
      
        He will take you places you've only dream.     
      
              
      
        If you've enjoyed our meeting, remember to ask your SysOp to carry   
      
        MINISTER, an echo with FidoNet if he/she doesn't already.  Remember   
      
        also to keep your head up high.  May God bless you and keep you!
