Genesis 4 reveals to us the devastating effects of sin. A good basketball team needs to have a healthy respect for its opponent to play well, and they plan who is going to defend against who. A nation must be aware of the potential weapons of the enemy to have a good defense. And so, the Christian needs to be reminded of the lethal nature of sin.

​

Peter said, Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 
1 Peter 5:8

​

Satan has always been good at camouflaging sin. He presents it as harmless, glamorous, and fulfilling. But sin, when it is finished, brings forth death, despair, and humiliation.

​

The life of Cain reveals to us the lethal power of sin.

In Genesis 4:1 we read, Adam lay with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said, “With the help of the Lord I have brought forth a man.”
