Genesis 4
If you have your Bibles with you now this evening, if you will be finding your place once again at the beginning book in your Bible. We are picking up tonight where we left off last week in our series of studies through the book of Genesis that we have entitled ''The Book of Beginnings: Creation, Fall, Flood, and Covenant''.

Really, as you take the book of Genesis and as you understand it and read it and study it, you know you have what about - uh, lets see, that's more than I thought...well, you have bunch of chapters in the book of Genesis!

Here in the very first few chapters, you find the first human. His name was Adam. You find the first woman. Her name was Eve. You find the first human to be born. His name was Cain.

They were garments of grace to cover up the guilt of Adam and Eve.
And I love what H.L. Wilmington says about the book of Genesis. He says, ''Genesis is, by ...
