The Firstborn's FailureSeries: GenesisPreacher: Jared BlankenshipDate: 8th November 2026Passage: Genesis 4:1-16-------------------The aim of the text is to press into our hearts the fact that redemptive potential is ruined by the pervasive presence and power of sin in each of us. Its purpose is to act as a mirror so that as we look at Cain we see ourselves in the reflection. It exposes the true heart of sin that is ours by nature. It describes the work of sin as our hearts are expressed in real behavior. And it threatens the judgment for sin that is seen ultimately in expulsion from the presence and goodness of God. But that doesn’t mean the text is without hope, for it is only by acknowledging the truth of our sinful condition that we can see the glorious grace of the gospel in Jesus Christ, God’s Son.
