    Hi Pastor John,<\/span><\/p>\n

    I’m wondering about last night’s reading,* on the bottom of the first page where it says,\u00a0“There was nothing inherently with\u00a0Cain’s question.”\u00a0\u00a0Would it be more accurate to say, “On the face of it there was nothing inherently wrong with Cain’s question”? … because there\u00a0was<\/em>\u00a0something wrong with his question.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Hi Jenny.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

    I disagree.\u00a0\u00a0There was nothing at all wrong with Cain’s question; that is\u00a0the very reason\u00a0Cain asked it.\u00a0 There\u00a0was\u00a0something wrong with Cain,\u00a0however,\u00a0and he was using an otherwise innocent question to hide his guilt.\u00a0 If the question had been inherently evil, Cain would not have asked it\u00a0because an evil question would have\u00a0given him away.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

    I\u00a0hope that helps.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
