Cain and Able - Who or What is the Enemy?
Picture
In James it says to call it all Joy when you face trails.  This is partly because of lessons we learn ourselves which bring us closer to God.  It is also because if he enemy is mindful enough of us to try and stop us thet he fears us and the power that God has given us.  May all things I do give glory to God. I am thankful to be part of his family and a Warrior with his word.
 
Last week we had an opposition that i did not face.  The importance of Theology.  It was a problem as some attendees felt Theology is the end all most important.  some claim to be bible scholars (so isn't the enemy right).  It more important to have a relationship with God then to study him.  T.he same as we make friends because of how of our relationship with them not because of their life, background or college credentials.

Cain and Able - Who or What is the Enemy?
 
Gen 4:1-8
Key vrs: "If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do wrong sin is crouching at your door; It desires to have you but you must master it"
 
Picture  the brazen Lion crouching waiting to pounce on an elephant for its dinner.  That is what the enemy is when we are week.

​Picture of Lions Standing on thier back legs listening to the master... This is the authority God has given us. Not just one lion or spirit but multiple

Supporting vrs Psalm 64 (Gods help) Phil 4:8 (Concentration on the good)
 
Discussion questions:
Cain suffered from jealously what sins do we suffer from?
What are some ways we can control the sins?
 
Ideas of listen to praise music instead of watching violent tv
Setting password for Porn to bible vrs Example Isaiah 53:5 "He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities."  Yes Jesus died for all sin
 
Conclusion:
Jesus died for our sins and we are saved by his blood, but we are responsible for what we do.  Sin not only hurts us but the ones around us.  When sin sneaks up on you think what would Jesus do? John 14:2 "I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works"  Jesus has given us the example.  He has also prepared us Mathew 10:1 "He  gave them authority to cast out evil spirits and to heal every kind of disease and illness."  We have the authority and power to do all things for Gods glory. We are the Warriors that God has put in the front lines for the battle at hand our greatest weapon is his love.

"The importance of Theology. It was a problem as some attendees felt Theology is the end all most important".

This kind of thinking has always amazed me. God says "My people PERISH for lack of what? KNOWLEDGE! However some, who knows their motives, AUTOMATICALLY ASSUME that if you honor God by studying His word, that it's a "either/or", then you call them on it and they say that's not what they were saying, when they were.

The LAST problem America has is people honoring God by studying His word, America is biblically illiterate. Earlier Aaron stated that we are "Ministers", what kind of Ministers can we be if we don't know what God is saying to us? What is the point of this blog if not to know God's word? Is it just for fun or to vent?

If God spoke in a loud voice, we'd talk about it for months, all in awe and wondering what He said, if you REALLY believe the Bible is God's WORD we should do no less with His revealed word.

We don't have to throw the baby out with the bathwater, believe it or not there are people who love the Lord and demonstrate it by studying His word.

I want to make another point on this notion that studying God's word is bad somehow, that it automatically means you aren't spiritual.

Have we forgot the Reformers? Have we so soon forgot who we are? Our fathers DIED so we could have the scripture and study it, men, woman, children in the hundreds of thousands DIED, were jailed frequently to GET US THE TRUTH, and WE DARE think anything except for "Praise God" to the one who carries that tradition?

No, ask John Bunyon, who spent 12 years in jail twice for not preaching the Queens Anglican Theology, his family became destitute, as in no food, they would scavage for scraps, he watched his daughter starve and die, and HE COULD HAVE GOT OUT AT ANYTIME, if he would have only recanted, but he would not. Ask him if Theology is important! Ask Luther, Knox or millions of others who have been persecuted, had their homes burned and wealth confiscated, who were sent away, burned on greenwood, beheading, ask them if theology is important today!

Why do you think we have so many heresies? Why do you think people perish? FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE, in some countries whole communities share parts of a bible, we have bibles, online commentaries, answers to everything but it's a sin to know according to some who judge out of ignorance, to be FASCINATED at what God is saying is how we should be, hypocrites

No one has said not to study the bible. All of this is studying the bible and growing closer to God. Without a relationship with God and relationship with the Holy spirit you will have a hard time discerning his word. God wants a relationship with us.

James 4:8 "Come near to God and he will come near to you"

Galatians 5:16-17 "So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever[a] you want."

Romans 8:1"Consequently, there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who are not walking according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit;"
