DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. What stood out to you from Sunday’s sermon?
2. What does Genesis 4:17-26 reveal about the human condition? Does the world around us agree with what the Bible reveals about the human condition?
3. God giving Seth to Adam and Eve was Him keeping His Word in Genesis 3:15. In what ways can you “take God at His Word” in your daily Christian life?
4. How is God’s judgment AND mercy seen in Genesis 4:17-26? What does this teach us about God and how we are to relate to Him? How does the gospel impact this?
