Title: “Cain: Finding Redemption Through Jesus’ Grace”
The story of Cain, as depicted in the Bible, is one of the most intriguing and thought-provoking narratives in the Old Testament. It’s a story that resonates with themes of jealousy, anger, and ultimately, the potential for redemption through divine grace. In this blog post, we will explore the story of Cain and how it can be seen through the lens of Jesus’ teachings about forgiveness and redemption.
Cain was the eldest son of Adam and Eve, and he lived in the shadow of his brother, Abel. We learn from the Book of Genesis that Cain was a farmer, while Abel was a shepherd. When both of them offered sacrifices to God, God favored Abel’s offering over Cain’s, which ignited a burning jealousy within Cain. Instead of acknowledging his feelings and seeking God’s guidance, Cain allowed his anger to consume him. In a fit of rage, he lured Abel into a field and murdered his own brother, making him the first murderer in history.
Cain’s actions did not go unnoticed. God confronted him and placed a curse on him, marking him so that he would wander the earth and never find rest. This curse reflects the idea that one’s sins have consequences and that a life lived outside of God’s grace is a life filled with suffering and restlessness.

Cain Through Jesus Lyrics
I’ve been through heartbreak
Through trials of many kind
Running on my own
But running out of fight
The enemy had me
Thinking I would lose
But I called on my Savior
And my Savior came through
Through Jesus
I have overcome
Through Jesus
All my chains are gone
By His power I stand in victory
His blood has washed my sins away
His presence is my hiding place
The devil better know
If he’s ever gonna get to me
He’s gotta go through Jesus (Jesus)
Through Jesus (Jesus)
His arms surround me
There’s no place I’d rather be
What can come against me
In the shadow of his wings (Mm mmm)
I know the battle’s coming
But I won’t be afraid (Oh, no)
‘Cause I know the God (Yes, I do)
Who defeated the grave
Through Jesus
I have overcome
Through Jesus
All my chains are gone
By His power I stand in victory
Oh
His blood has washed my sins away
His presence is my hiding place
The devil better know
If he’s ever gonna get to me
He’s gotta go through Jesus (Jesus)
Through Jesus (Jesus)
He is on my side
Gives me what I’m needing
I can do all things
Do all things through Jesus
He is on my side
Gives me what I’m needing
I can do all things
Do all things through Jesus
Mmm all my chains are gone
By His power I stand in victory
Oh yeah, oh
His blood has washed my sins away (Sins away)
His presence is my hiding place (Oh, yeah)
The devil better know
If he’s ever gonna get to me
(The devil better know, the devil better know)
He’s gotta go through Jesus (Jesus)
Through Jesus (Jesus)
He’s gotta go through Jesus
(Jesus)
He’s gotta go, if he’s ever gonna get to me (Jesus)
He’s gotta go through Jesus
