More Evidence Of Regeneration
This sermon addresses the following points:
• Abel was one of God’s elect people
• Abel knew he was one of God’s elect people because he had been born again
• Abel knew he had been born again because the Spirit of God bore witness with his spirit that he was a child of God
• Abel knew he had been born again because he exercised saving faith in the redemptive work of Christ
• Abel knew he had been born again because he lived as a stranger and a pilgrim on the earth
• Distinguishing between the career paths of Cain and Abel, showing how farming was linked with false religion, whereas shepherding was linked with true religion
• Tracing these career paths to their father, Adam, who was also a farmer and a shepherd
• Showing how Abel’s career path of shepherding represents true religion, illustrating the way he conducted himself as a stranger and a pilgrim in this world
• Making an application of this teaching to the lives of God’s people today—all regenerate sinners have entered into the kingdom of God and should be living as strangers and pilgrims in the world
• Explaining the dual citizenship of the believer—he/she is a citizen of the kingdom of this world, as well as the kingdom of God
• Explaining how the believer is to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, while living in the kingdom of this world
• Highlighting several snares which often cause God’s people to stumble and backslide as they journey through this world as strangers and pilgrims
