Episode 6 - What Does Blood Say? (Cain, Abel & Jesus)
from Sparked by Promise · host Karena Cruse and Matt Bennett
In this episode, we revisit the story of Cain and Abel in Genesis 4 - a story most people know at least a little, but one that feels very different when you slow down and really sit with it.After Abel is killed, God says something haunting:“Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground.”That image alone is powerful.But then we found something in the New Testament that stopped us in our tracks.In Hebrews 12, it says Jesus’ blood speaks “a better word” than the blood of Abel.A better word?That made us ask:What was Abel’s blood saying… and what is Jesus’ blood saying instead?We talk through justice, mercy, sacrifice, and the surprising way these two stories connect across the Bible.We’re not theologians. We didn’t go to seminary.We’re just asking questions, noticing patterns, and trying to understand what’s been there all along.Some moments in Scripture feel bigger when you connect them.This was definitely one of those moments for us.Come explore it with us.Genesis 4:3–10Hebrews 11:4Hebrews 12:24
