Why Did God Reject Cain's Offering?

🔥 Have you ever contemplated the true meaning of the blood offering in the Bible? Abel's blood offering symbolized an affirmation of a significant promise - the promise that God Himself would become the sacrifice for our sins.

🙏 Abel's act of obedience reflected his faith in this promise. By contrast, Cain's bloodless offering misrepresented God's character and promise, indicating a misunderstanding of divine love and self-sacrifice.

✨ God, by rejecting Cain's offering, was in essence refusing to accept a lie about Himself.

Years ago we had a minister explained that way. He said what Kane should have done was taking some of the food he had grown and purchased a lamb from Abel so he to could give a blood sacrifice

Old Testament God is a blood seeker. Bal himself.
