We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Spirit of Cain" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
In this book, Andrew Billings unmasks the nature and process that this spirit uses to strategize against mankind and the church. There is no gray area for this spirit to hide in the shadows anymore. You will learn how to: -Recognize its operation in your environment, with those around you. -Understand the keys to freedom from this spirit. -Respond rightly to those who sin against you. -Not allow others lives to be a gauge by which to measure your own life. -Discover how to build healthy environments of authentic honor and genuine unity in your relationships and churches. Have you ever struggled being genuinely happy for someone else? Have you used others as benchmarks to better or beat? Are you driven to be number one because you cant tolerate others outdoing you? Why has rivalry and ambitious competition been such a destructive common thread throughout history? The spirit of Cain has been the silent killer of relationships for too long. When God warned Cain about the sin crouching at his door, God saw that something more sinister was at work than merely emotions. Since the day Cain slew Able in the field until now, the same demonic spirit has crouched at the door of countless peoples lives throughout history, creating competition, envy, jealousies, rivalries, murder, and wars. This unfortunately has also gone unnoticed and unchecked in much of the church. Until now. We have all been affected by this spirit, but many times we do not see it for what it is. As you read, you will be empowered to live in complete freedom above the snares of this spirit, and content to experience the joy of genuinely celebrating your blessings as well as the successes of others.

Endorsements
The church must change. The days of war between the saints must cease. If we are to fulfill the calling given to us to be a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, we must learn how to recognize, discern, and defeat the spirit of Cain that exists to destroy the establishment of Gods kingdom on earth. I stand in awe of Andrew Billings courage, honesty, and prophetic insight to tackle such a poignant topic. With the utmost integrity as both a writer and a spiritual leader, Andrew unfolds revelatory truths that contain the power to liberate those who will read and set them totally free from the death grip of the spirit of Cain. This book is needed in this hour. A timely read that could set the church back on course.

Dedication
This book is dedicated to the much-needed establishing of greater unity in the wider body of Christ. It is dedicated to agreement with the prayer that Jesus prayed:
I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one.
JOHN 17:2022

CONTENTS
Introduction
MEET CAIN
I grew up in the church, which means I saw a lot of things regarding relationships within the church. There was always someone trying to be better than another, someone trying to be more holy than someone else, and a person with a holier-than-thou approach. If you have been in church for any length of time, then you have probably experienced this too. Why couldnt everyone just want to love God and each other, believing the best in total innocence? Even though I saw many people who honored and loved each other as God commanded all of us to do, I also saw many people who had the common denominator of being driven to be the best they could possibly be. Not only that, but they were driven to be better than their brothers and sisters in Christ.
When I was around twenty-three years old, I experienced a situation where my eyes were opened to the dangers of competition and ambition on a far more intentional level. While I was spending time loving on Jesus, enjoying the presence of God, in a new church plant I was a part of in Auckland, New Zealand, I had an interaction with a young man that I have never forgotten. At the end of the service, this young man walked up to me and began to say something really bizarre, completely taking me by surprise.
You see that jacket youre wearing? he asked. He was referring to a sports blazer I wore to church some weeks.
I replied, Yes. Its my favorite one.
Arrogantly, he replied, God told me that is going to be mine one day.
Of course I was uncomfortable with this whole situation, even agitated by the fact that he would be so forceful in his statement that he was going to own my jacket one day. Part of the reason I was perturbed was because I could feel the jealousy that was emanating from him, making it difficult for me to respond to him in a Christlike way. So I simply backed away from the conversation the best way I knew how, doing as much as I could to be gracious to him.
When I thought about what he said to me later on, I realized there was far more being said in his statement than that he simply wanted my jacket. Envy was present in his heart, but not just for my jacket. There was envy of what he perceived I had in the way of my calling and favor from the Lord. He didnt realize that in his own identity with God, everything I had was available to him as well. Though I did not fully understand it at the time, I could feel an overly competitive air boldly pressing against me as he told me God was going to give him my jacket.
