And Jehovah said to Cain, Why art thou angry, and why is thy countenance fallen? And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? Why does your face look sad? Why do you have that angry look on your face? Then the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? Why that scowl on your face?
Why do you look so unhappy? Why are you depressed? Why the sulking? Why is your countenance fallen? Cain does something wrong and when it bites him, he becomes angry. And why did he murder him? The actions John is talking about here must be this offering. And Cain got angry. Not humbled, not sorry, not repentant—but angry! Does anyone else find this weird? It is typically human! I do this! ILL: Awhile back, I said some things that were not particularly sensitive and loving to my one of my daughters.
She said nothing in return, but later, Laina told me that I had made her cry and really hurt her feelings. My response to Laina? I got angry. Who was at fault? Who got angry? It is clear in the story that Cain did not do right, which is why God rejected his offering.
But rather than addressing his own wrong-doing, Cain was angry with God and his brother, and then killed his brother out of jealousy and anger. He should not have been angry with God or Abel, but with himself. Genesis If you do what is right, will you not be accepted?
Cain is angry and God gives him this warning. In Hebrew, this is the word for an animal crouching for the kill, ready to pounce and devour you! ILL: How many of you have ever seen cats hunt? We have two cats, and they are terrific mousers. I know because they leave me presents most days—they leave the mouse guts at the bottom of the steps into the garage.
They sit perfectly still for the longest time, and then they see movement—a mouse in the grass. Then I get mouse guts on the steps. Sin crouches, ready to pounce and devour us. Peter used the same picture talking about the devil. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
We are in a battle for our souls. When we get angry, sin is not far away! Perhaps this is why Paul wrote:. Sin crouches at the door. Remember, this is our enemy who is prowling around looking for someone to devour. One of the rules in Glacier is that you eat in an area separate from where you pitch your tents, and you are not supposed to take food into your tents. We heard this story about a backpacker in Glacier. This guy caught some fish in the evening, and wanted to keep them for breakfast.
He was afraid that if he left them in the lake, the bears would find them and eat them. Well, the bears found the fish and ate them—and him too!
But when you hang onto anger, you are inviting him into the tent. You are giving him a foothold, room to operate, in your life. Because when you are angry, sin is not far behind. Your anger is opening the door for sin.
