Real death is separation from God, the source of joy and love. The “Way of Cain”—following our own path—leads to death. God offers the true way.
--
Cain’s mistake wasn’t just his offering—it was his heart. He knew what God required but chose his own way, bringing the best of his labor instead of the blood sacrifice God had commanded. His disobedience was an attempt to redefine righteousness on his own terms. But no matter how good our efforts seem, they can never replace God’s perfect plan.
When we rely on our own strength, we walk in Cain’s footsteps—away from God’s presence. We, like him, find ourselves separated from God because of our defiance. But Christ offers another way—the perfect sacrifice that restores our relationship with God and leads to eternal life.
Listen to this sermon to discover how to reject Cain’s path and walk in God’s truth.
