We have seen how Cain was affected by Adam?s sin; weak worship, ignoring God?s word, giving himself over to the sin that awaited him and then lying about it. But that event was pretty close to Adam?s sin. We?ll have to cover a broader time span to figure out how Adam?s sin affects mankind and what it means to God?s promises.

My Daughter Walking
This is crossposted on my personal site.
Just thought I’d put this up for mostly the fam. My daughter’s walking (1 year old). Not as early as my son (who walked on his own at 7 months–ack) but still, pretty steady. She took her first steps at 9 months, realized that this might mean seperation from Mommy and decided to hold off on it. Ignore spelling errors. I’m still sick.
Just in case embedding this doesn’t work. Click read more to see the video.

Slate’s David Plotz Reads the Bible
Saw this over at Better Bibles (thanks Wayne) and read through all of the posts to date. Mr. Plotz is a proud Jew (though he admits not a terribly observant one?that cracked me up) and is coming at the Bible (in its entirety) for the first time. Pretty interesting reading.
God’s interrogation of Cain was as gentle as Adam’s: asking
questions without accusing until the need comes for that. It is the honest
seeking of a repentant heart—even though the black heart before Him would lie
and prance around the truth and finally whines upon hearing God’s righteous
judgment.
Special thanks to Marvin for pointing out that the charts
section of the Archive was suffering from DSTS (Defunct Server Transfer Syndrome).
Now you can all witness the clicking power of this fully linked and operational
charts section.
