Sharper Iron From Kfuo Radio

After the death of Abel and the departure of Cain, Moses records the genealogy of Adam through Seth. Banned from Eden, the sons of Adam inherit his sinful image and likeness.

This faithful line that goes through Seth believes and passes down the promises of God throughout their lifetimes. Nonetheless, sin means that each one in turn dies.
