Those  who  haven’t  been  born  again  are  all  Cains. People  who  believe  in  Jesus  but  do  not  believe  in  Jesus  Christ  who  has  come  by  the  water,  the  blood,  and  the  Spirit  are  all  Cains.  They  act  just  like  Cain.  They  get  angry  at  any  given  moment. They  say  that  they  are  the  best.    And    then    they    boast    their    strength    and    righteousness.  They  say,  “We  are  a  grand  denomination  like so. Yet, why are you, a tiny denomination, making a fit  claiming  that  we  are  not  believing  properly?”  The  Lord  said,  “The  kingdom  of  heaven  is  like  leaven,  which  a  woman  took  and  hid  in  three  measures  of  meal  till  it  was  all  leavened”  (Matthew  13:33).  If  we  put  a  small  amount  of  yeast into big wheat flour dough, it will make the dough be   leavened.   It   means   that   although   the   number   of   people who have received the remission of sins may not be  large,  this  faith  will  spread  to  all  people  throughout  this world in no time. 

Who  is  Abel?  He  was  a  born-again  person.  Who  is  Cain?  He  represents  the  Christian  sinners  who  haven’t  been born again. We must understand the fact that those who  haven’t  been  born  again  are  all  Cain.  As  such,  people   who   haven’t   been   born   again   act   like   Cain   without  exception.  That  is  why  the  Bible  says,  “(Do)  not  as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother” (1  John  3:12).  What  is  characteristic  of  Cain’s  faith?  He  had  believed  according  to  his  own  thoughts.  Even  now,  those   who   believe   according   to   their   own   thoughts,   saying, “If I offer prayers of repentance now, God is sure to  forgive  me,”  must  realize  that  they  are  all  like  Cain  and revert back.

Dear   fellow   believers,   people   who   haven’t   been   born again by not having faith in the gospel of the water and   the   Spirit   say   horrible   things   when   they   see   born-again  people.  They  say,  “People  get  saved  even  if  they  do  not  believe  in  the  gospel  of  the  water  and  the  Spirit.” Then they start persecuting them. Their conduct is  exactly  the  same  as  Cain  having  struck  Abel  to  death.  Even so, they can never kill us if God doesn’t allow it. 

All those who do not believe in the Word of God as it  is  are  like  Cain.  Do  you  know  how  many  Cains  there  are? Currently, 99.9% of Christians all over the world are like  Cain.  It  isn’t  the  case  that  Cain  did  not  believe  in  God.   Surely,   Cain   did   offer   sacrifice   before   God.   However,  in  actuality,  it  is  the  case  that  Cain  did  not  have   faith   in   God.   He   had   too   much   of   his   own   righteousness.  The  rest  of  Cain’s  life  wasn’t  good  at  all.  Only the curse awaited him. 

We must have a spiritual faith like that of Abel. The Lord  says,  “Behold,  I  send  you  out  as  sheep  in  the  midst  of  wolves.  Therefore  be  wise  as  serpents  and  harmless  as  doves”  (Matthew  10:16). Let us live as wise as a serpent and as pure  as  a  dove.  I  hope  you  will  become  ones  who  are  faithful to the righteousness of God.
