Still do not agree?

Let us turn once again to the Word of God for answers...

Jude 1:11
"Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core."


The Mark of Cain and the Way of Cain are connected. How?

For one, they have to do with REWARD.

You folks believe Cain killed Abel out of spite or jealousy or some 'watered down' reason. No.

Cain killed his brother for REWARD...

Genesis 3:5
"For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."


We are talking Human Sacrifice here. You know? To gain favor with the one waiting at the door!

Hello? Does 'Deal with the Devil' ring a bell to anyone?

Genesis 4:7
"If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him."


The Mark of Cain and the Mark of the Beast is a DEAL WITH THE DEVIL. That concept is missing from your equations.

Now... what is the 'Way of Cain' again? Hey Jude...

Jude 1:6
"And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day."


Do you see it now? The Mark is exchanging one body for another. Sons of God... Daughters of Men.

And...

Jude 1:7
"Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire."


Going after Genetically Modified Flesh! Giants, etc.

This is why the Occult World loves their "TWO BALL CANE". They are going after Strange Flesh. The DNA of the Gods.

Did you know there are people like my ex who can read a book and can't tell you one thing that's in it?
I didn't. I asked him once to read me an article in the paper and he read it. and I said oh..
and he said what?
I said didn't you just hear what you just read? and he said no, he just read it.

WHAT??!! are you talking about??
I read a book I see the whole picture like a movie playing in my head. I hear the voices and the music and I see the people and the villages, or ride a boat on the ocean.. I mean I SOAR!!!

And he said, I just read it.

I have to quote your opening line..
"Let us turn once again to the Word of God for answers... "

LOL..
Sorry..
But you know what that sounds like?
Hrumph.. haven't we done this already. Can't you see what it says??
But more scholarly like, a Proffessor in a stuffy suit who's losing patience with his class LOL

Funny thing is. my ex couldn't do that.
I wonder if there are some here that don't soar with the writing.
Is it a guy thing?
Is it something you learn at storytime in school?

Sorry for busting into Cain's guilty conscience, or mark, or whatever it was, er is.. or will be..
Don't forget the crossroads.
There's 2 ways..
One leads up and one leads somewhere else..

Thank You Base12
Hope you don't mind me
"analyzing" your comment.
Just that first line struck me funny.. :D

HUGS

My ex was into manuals. Motors. engines.
He could read the manual and know how to fix a lawnmower without going back and reading step.2
I can't do that. I have to have the instructions glued to my forehead or else I forget where I put them down.

that's the third time glued has made an appearance to me today.
Ever have that happen, like seeing the number like 17, everywhere?
And this guy John the Baptist, he keeps following me everywhere I go.
(I think he's trolling me)

Mechanical minds think alike.. hmm
Thank You
Hugs
If you see John... oh nvmd..
:)

what was it ? - twinc

The mark on Cain?

Gen 4:
[11] And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
[12] When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.
[13] And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
[14] Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
[15] And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.

I do not believe the MARK was a Visible MARK that any man could SEE, and immediately Know...uh oh, that man IS Cain, don't kill him...Moreso It was Gods MARK.

We do not SEE God. We do not SEE what God is "DOING"...we See the Results of what God HAS Done.

Cain had a CURSE upon him.
A hefty Curse.
Men in Cain's day;
1) raised Animals to Eat.
2) raised Crops to Eat.
And Cain's knowledge / ability/ talent WAS in crop raising!

Eating is essential to mankind!
No grocery stores in Cains Day!

Should Cain till and till the ground, every neighbor would See Cains Repeatedly Failed Results. (WHILE others crops flourished)
IMO-
That would be suspect.
Where would Cain get Crop food to Eat?
Steal, barter, work, beg, pick over the neighbors left overs?
A delimma for Cain...a concern for neighbors?

Seems reasonable to me- Cain was a Vagabond- (meaning constantly traveling from place to place)...because...
OF his Curse- his Crops would always Fail- and neighbors Would take Notice, with Suspicion, and maybe take action toward him?

Old Mosaic Law- taught:
Lev 23:
[22] And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: I am the LORD your God.

Can't say without more research, IF that Law Applied during Any Portion of Cains Lifetime.

Glory to God,
Taken

Well I remember God said to Moses anyone who sees him won't live so maybe God put a symbol of himself on cain. If they knew cain belonged to God maybe that's why they would kill him..it probably was also some kind of symbol of protection. I know cain life didn't go very well cause God sent him away with a mediocre life hence for him killing abel for being chosen by God. This also reminds me of the book of Job and satan. Remember satan was walking to and fro like cain. Cain kinda reminds me of satan though when I see the name cain. For years I always got the thought that maybe cain was satan because of that. It seems like God likes to send people to and fro when they rebel against him. Maybe it's to think about what they did long and hard on thier way lol

do you think God canes?

Scourges actually:

Hebrews 12

6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

Righteous brothers and sisters and cousins?? People not born in sin. (Remember, both Adam and Eve were made.) Born in the Garden of Eden before Cain??

Wow.

I will go read Gill's commentary when I can. But I cannot imagine connecting it to Cain's mark.

Something else to consider. No reason to think people needed to be living currently that might have killed Cain at the time he killed his younger brother Abel. Cain lived on. According to some sources to see 7 generations of his offspring. I am not sure as I have never studied this very much. Many people possible to murder him long after he got his mark, but before he died naturally. (Or of his house collapsing on him, as some sources suggest.) Makes no sense for God to wait until the first person found and approached him. Then suddenly put a mark on him. I cannot imagine the mark wore off before he died. The Bible does not say "so that no one would kill him mere days, or even years, after the mark was put upon him." It is unclear whether Abel had children, but his descendants might have wanted to kill him. Maybe a great great grandson of Abel's? God was not so much protecting Cain as insuring that He will have vengeance in his own way. "Vengeance is Mine!" saith the Lord.

Keep at it.
I don't know. Sometimes God gets rid of people and save them for later use. Many reasons why he probably didn't want him dead. And he was protecting him with the mark. I also know it could be a defense if someone knew what cain did to abel they'd probably want him dead..lol shoot I don't know and we are born in sin because eve ate the apple and cursed the ground thereafter...
Lol
