The Prototype of a Pagan
Genesis 4:1-16 In Chapter 4 of Genesis, we see many 'firsts' that characterize both pagans and believers. Perhaps the most important 'first' was that of the unbelieving Cain. Cain serves as the prototype of a pagan and is a testimony to every person who has ever rebelled against God. In verses 1-16 of Chapter 4, Pastor Ramey outlines seven characteristics of an unbeliever as illustrated by the behavior of Cain. An unbeliever 1. receives the gift of life from God (vv. 1-2) 2. fails to offer God what He requires of them (vv. 3-6). 3. resents God and responds wrongly to His Word (vv. 7-8). 4. refuses to admit their sin to God (v. 9-10). 5. receives the due penalty of their sin (vv. 11-12). 6. protest against God's judgement (vv. 13-14). 7. fails to appreciate God's common grace (v. 15). Cain rebelled against God and was thus consigned to wander in the land of Nod. Such is the life led by those who travel the way that seems right to men instead of the way God intends. Are you traveling the way of Cain? The way that seems right to a man but actually leads to death? This road will only consign you to a miserable existence and an even more miserable eternity. Cain chose the way for Cain instead of the way of life. The way of Christ should be our way.
