1 | why did'nt GOD accept CAIN'S offering? | Genesis | keynam | 100069 | ||
The conclusion we came up with in class last night was that God didn't accept Cain's offering because of 1) it was not a blood offering.(This was made evident in Genisis Chap 3 when Adam and Eve realized they were naked and God made them clothing out of skin.To the best of my knowledge the only way you can get skin from something is by killing it. 2) God didn't accept Cain's offering because in Genisis 3 he cursed the ground and Cain's offering came from the ground. 3) Cain didn't offer God his best and choicest fruits he just gave him any ole thing. All of this is made evident in Genisis chap. 3-chap4 |

[3) Cain didn't offer God his best and choicest fruits he just gave him any ole thing] If I had to make a guess I would choose this one. It couldn't be #2 because God received grain offerings later on. #1 is out in my book because not enough was revealed to them about the "blood" and what it stood for.. This is a good question and needs to be compared with Esau and Jacob. Was it just God's good pleasure that He picks and chooses or does He really choose based on a knowledge of the choices He [already knows] we will make? |

A little more here: The [Bible says] fear and knowledge of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. If we fear and know we should be wise in the choices we make. This is every man's a gift called "understanding". God knows who will choose in His direction and directs his steps. Others have their understanding, clouded....And then there was Pharoah. |
