Genesis: Redemption and Worship
This message is brought to you by Pastor Darryl Morrison
Main Scriptures:
Genesis 3:20-24; 4:1-16
What Adam lost for us in the garden, Jesus redeemed on the cross
Redemption:
God will reverse the curse of sin and death through the coming of the promised Seed, the son of the living, His name is Jesus.
Proper Covering: v. 21
Consequences:
- Banishment vs. 22-24
- He kicked them out: v 23
- Why do you think God banished Adam and Eve from the garden?
What are cherubim?
- Banishment is not always punishment, it may be for the protection of your posterity.
Worship/Offering: vs. 3-6
Substitutionary Sacrifice
The Way of Worship
Substitutionary Sacrifice: 3:21
Blood atonement is necessary for us to approach God, this is called Substitutionary Sacrifice.
The Way of Worship 3:22
We are worshiping God at a distance.
How did they know to offer?
Why is one offering accepted by God and the other is not?
How did the two offerings differ?
One gave God’s way.
One gave based on their way.
We will either give God’s way or give our way.
Why do you think Cain became angry? vs. 5
Summary: Cain and Abel teach us teach us a very important lesson; faith in Christ is about what we offer and the way we offer. Our worship can never be accomplished based on good work, it is fulfilled by faith and sacrifice.
