Who murdered Abel?

According to Genesis 4:8, Cain rose up against his brother, Abel, and killed him.

But according to Jesus’ statement in John 8:44; Satan, the devil, murdered Abel.

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a MURDERER from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh A LIE, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

1 John 3:8, “He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the BEGINNING. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the WORKS of the devil.”

1 John 3:12, Cain was of that Wicked One…

Satan didn’t physically kill Abel. He used Cain to kill Abel. Abel was a threat to Satan’s rule over humanity. He thought that Abel was the promised redeemer who would depose him as the spiritual head of the human race (Genesis 3:15).

Satan needs a person to carry out HIS works.

God gave man dominion over the earth 🌎, over everything that has “life” in it.

We underestimate the potential of EARTH when making contact with SEED

Whenever SEED touches EARTH, it grows exponentially!!!

It can be the physical body of a female touched by a sperm seed of a male

Or the heart and mind touched by the word of God, which Jesus said is comparable to a farmer sowing a seed in the earth.

Jesus said, ‘My words are spirit and life’ (John 6:63)

Or a farmer sowing a seed in the earth for a harvest of fruits and vegetables…

Jesus said in Mark 4:28 “For the earth bringeth forth fruit of HERSELF…”

Satan uses people to advance his agenda by getting them to use their dominion over EARTH and SEED to advance his purposes!

The opposite is true

The kingdom of God will take you out of the limitations of the system of man. For example, the woman who had the issue of blood for 12 long years in Mark 5:15-34. She spent all her money trying to find a cure. She didn’t get better, but she grew worse until she touched the hem of Jesus garment and power went out of him and healed her medical issue. Jesus said to the woman, ‘THY FAITH HATH MADE THEE WHOLE, GO IN PEACE and be WHOLE of thy plague!’

Jesus illustrated what faith in God can do!

When you touch “eternal life,” it heals, restores, and brings light to dark situations. Jesus said in John 7:38, ‘he that believe on me out his innermost being shall flow RIVERS of LIVING waters’

The same stuff (life) working in Jesus to heal the woman with the issue of blood is the same stuff (life) working in you to heal your body, restore your home…

The difference

Evil always advances because greed is so strong. People will sacrifice bodies, family, and children just to get success, power, and recognition.

You must be just as devoted to advancing God’s kingdom in your body! Realizing there are no limitations.

Satan knows this… that’s why he tempted Jesus to turn a stone into bread, or he could offer Jesus the kingdoms of this world and their glory if he falls down and worship him.

The point is that Satan always tempt us to operate independently of God, which always leaves us broke!

Every day, we get an opportunity to work the things of God, to let the life of God flow out…

That’s what the gift of Life was designed to do. See John 4:14

“And this is the record, that God hath given us eternal life, and this LIFE is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath LIFE; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not LIFE” 1 John 5:11-12.

What the apostle John is saying here is, ‘if we believe man’s witness, the witness of God is greater. The apostle John says we have the witness in ourselves (1 John 5:10). What is the witness? LIFE
