In due process CT time and in
obedience to Gods command (Gen.
1929, Eve bore Adam two sons, each
very different type Of manhood.
Mothers ought to ponder upon the
words of Eve, 81 have gotten man
with the help Of Jehovah" Parents
should realize that it is God who
sends them their children, @. e., by his
help, and 1t is to him they must give
account for their nurture and up
bringing. Upon reaching manhood
one, Abel, became q shepherd. and
the other, Cain, became farmer. The
difference in their characters, not their
occupations. is illustrated by the sac
rifices they brought to offer unto God.
Although it is not recorded, it Is
highly probable that God had COM
manded that there should be an offer
ing of blood. Sin had entered the
world and we are told in Hebrews
9:22 and 1919, 80, that only by
the shedding Of blood is there any re-
mission OF sin. The blood atonement
may be repugnant to some superficial
thinkers. but It is not in the sight OF
God. It is Gods way. 1t can be
traced In the early traditions of nearly
every religion.

Gains Offering.


The fundamental fault was really
in Cain and not in his offering. Had
Gains heart been right he would have
made a proper sacrifice that would
have been acceptable in Gods sight,
!. John 8: IL. We are told that Abers
offering was of faith. Heb. 1874, and
hence it was a more excellent sacri-
fee than that of Cain, for without
faith it is impossible to please God"
The firstling of the flock, the lamb.
was a type OF that true sacrifice Of
Tered before the foundations Of the
world, John 1929. There Is another
fundamental difference between these
two offerings Gains offering repre-
scented the labor Of his own hands
and was much more pleasing to the
eyes than that OF Abel
Gods disrespect for Gains offering
was due to sin. Wv. 6. "Sin crouch
eth at the door" Here sin Is pictur'
ed as wild beast lying at the door
and ready to spring upon him who
first gives entrance. God dealt in
mercy with Cain, even though he did
not accept of his offering, but Cain
did not conquer the sin crouching at
his door and therefore the terrible
denouement.
From the marginal reading Or. W
Of verse eight and also from the Sep
tuagint we gather that Cain invei'
gled Abel into the country, having de
liberately planned to wreak his ven
geance upon him, 1t being impossible
to do so in the place where the sac
rice had been offered. Gains anger
not only against God, but against his
brother whom God had accepted, is
evidenced today by the way the world
hates those whom God accepts, John
1878. Cain slew Abel because his
own works had been evil and those OF
