Week 2 of our TBH Series is done! 🫶💥
To Be Honest . . .
How has our series been for you?
Has it revealed the true condition of your heart?
How has God helped you in dealing with the “heart issue” in your life?
On Week 2, we talked about “Hatred” from the life of Cain and Abel.
The question is: How did that hatred grow in Cain’s heart?
And where does that hatred ultimately come from?
In Genesis chapter 3, we’ve seen God forbid Adam and Eve to eat the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. But when the serpent tempted them and they ate the fruit, they realized they were naked and hid from the presence of the LORD. From that moment, sin entered into our world, and that includes what we now call “Hatred.”
In Genesis chapter 4, we read the story of Cain and Abel, the sons of Adam and Eve. Over time, Cain murdered his younger brother Abel because God had more regard for Abel’s offering than Cain’s.
This stirred up hatred in Cain’s heart. That hatred grew and took deep root in him, eventually leading him to murder his brother.
Ultimately, it wasn’t just about God disregarding Cain’s offering, it was a consequence, a domino effect, of Adam and Eve’s disobedience in the garden. The curse was passed on, and sin began to reign in humanity. This is what we call the fall of humanity.
When Jesus came, His life, death, and resurrection addressed the problem of sin. He offered forgiveness to those who believe and gives us the assurance that our sinful hearts can be changed as we follow Him in this life.
Only Jesus can heal every heart issue, and He wants us "To Be Honest" with whatever issues we are dealing with. ❤️🩹
