Is Sin Crouching?
Our Motives Yesterday, we talked through how Cain and Abel knew how they were to worship the Father and that ultimately, in our fallen state, God still wants a relationship with us I also mentioned that the Bible does not say why God rejected Cain’s sacrifice, but perhaps it was Cain’s attitude or perhaps his offering wasn’t what God desired from him If we think of Proverbs 21:27, it…

The First Offerings
Worshipping God In some ways, I love these two verses because the first thing I notice is that Cain and Abel have a relationship (of some kind) with God. They bring God an offering, the product of their work as a farmer of the fruit of the ground and as a shepherd To bring an offering was to worship God, and we must be careful not to think of the Levitical Law here because Cain and Abel were…

Were These The First Set of Twins?
Were These The First Set of Twins?
It is a well-known fact that Jacob and Esau were twins within Scripture, but what is not commonly known is that Cain and Abel were also thought to be twins. This is because we can see that the usual way of accounting for multiple births was that the conception and then the birth of each child is mentioned (Read Genesis 29:32-33). In other words, like with Leah, there are two conceptions, and two…

Life Isn’t That Easy
Life Isn’t That Easy
He Is Here It’s hard to believe that we are only in chapter 4 of Genesis when so much has happened so far, and yet, up until this point, we have looked at the creation of the world, the creation of man, and the fall. From this point, it’s humanity living with the effects of sin So, chapter 4 starts with Adam and Eve doing what God asked of them when He said to be fruitful, and so they start a…

Eden’s Protectors
What Cherubim Represent We know within Scripture that when the Cherubim are mentioned, they are always associated with the presence and glory of God (Read Ezekiel 10; Isaiah 6; Revelation 4). Although, when the cherubim are illustrated on earth (such as when God wanted them within the design of the tabernacle), then this is where they signify a meeting place with God We need to remember that…

God’s Mercy
The tree of life is a life-giving tree mentioned in the books of Genesis and Revelation. God created this tree to enhance and permanently sustain the physical life of humanity, but God placed the tree centrally so that it would have been easily accessible to Adam and Eve from any point in the garden After Adam and Eve had sinned, God said: “Then the Lord God said, “Look, the human beings have…

Covered by Grace
God Provides Nothing in the Scriptures is by chance – we know this – and yet, it is still incredible to delve into these truths and continuously find more ways that God has provided His love and grace for us I found another truth within this next verse we are going to study: “The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.”Genesis 3:21 There is a Hebrew combination…

Eve’s Real Name
The Fascination with Eve I have always loved to delve deeper into Scripture and receive further revelation from God, but I think that it is kind of sad when people, let alone Christians, read the Word and believe those black and white words are it Whilst the written Word is beautiful and powerful in itself; nothing can quite prepare you for when logos becomes rhema. Rhema is where the words…

And to the man He said…
The Curse for Man Before this point, Adam worked the land in Eden and produce would spring forth from the ground because it was good. Yet now, God told Adam that he would have to work hard because although the land would produce as before, thorns and thistles would now grow faster, making Adam’s job much harder Interestingly, God’s curse of thorns for man was the curse Jesus took on when they…

Wives Desiring Control
The Power-Struggle Yesterday, we went through the first part of Genesis 3:16, which focused on Motherhood for Eve, but today in the final part of Genesis 3:16, God changes direction and puts a curse on marriage as well We can read that from this point, women and men would now have an ongoing conflict. This verse is in stark contrast to the ideal conditions of creation, wherein the Garden of…

Thanks, Eve...
Thanks, Eve…
Why Childbirth Hurts Unfortunately, we can read why childbirth is so painful in Genesis 3:16. My daughter asked the other day if there would be a long queue in heaven to speak to Eve because of this very reason, and I think she might be right! Pain is now part of the suffering brought into the world through the sin of Adam and Eve. We can see that God addresses Eve (after the serpent) because…

What God said to the Serpent…
Where sin began Interestingly, God addresses the serpent first because that is ultimately where the sin began We need to remember that before satan’s fall, he was an angel of the highest rank and prestige. He was described as beautiful, and yet, in Isaiah 14, Scripture tells us that satan’s fall had to do with his desire to be equal, or even greater, than God. Therefore, God speaks to the…

Is God calling?
Within the verses of Genesis 3:9-13, we can see exactly what has happened when God is asking the question “Where are you?” It should be the question that we ask ourselves daily within our walk with the Lord because as sin continues within our lives, we can see from Adam and Eve and even the countless others within the Bible that we simply go astray and move further away from God When God asked…

Shame in Nakedness
We aren’t born with the need to cover our nakedness, but there comes a point where we intrinsically want to cover our “modesty”. I remember the feeling of needing to cover myself and the shame of being naked unintentionally, growing up It is suggested that God’s light covered Adam and Eve before the fall. Hence why there was no shame as they were clothed in a “light of Righteousness” (Matthew…

The Guilty
Isn’t it “funny” with human behaviour when we know that we may have, or may want to do something we know intrinsically is wrong, that generally, we embark on bringing others into that situation too… If Eve had eaten the fruit alone and then admitted her sin to God, then things could have been different. Yes, God may have punished her by death, and Adam, as heartless as it might seem, could have…

What the World Desires...
What the World Desires…
Unfortunately, to be like God is what the world still desires most…to be on the throne…to be the most powerful…to have the most wisdom…to be able to create..and to have the right to destroy Satan wanted to be like God, which was his downfall and Eve wanted to be like God, which was ours I find it so sad that this is still the case today. I mean, we only need to look at history to realise that…

Don’t Exaggerate God
It can be so easy to exaggerate in our humaness I mean, let’s face it, as innocent as it might seem (because I know that we have all done it at some point in our lives) it can have so many consequences. We can see this in Genesis 3, where we see the serpent talking to Eve, and we then see her exaggerate God’s revelation to Adam over her human desires All too often, we can be given direction…
