Subject: Why did God reject Cain's offering |
Bible Note: The ramifications are high here. If we accept the theology that flood cleansed the earth from the curse of the fall, then we might reasonably conclude something other that Christ's sacrifice and death on the cross could remove that same curse from man. That is real dangerous reasoning. That also opens us to the question as why this earth must pass away being consumed by the fire as seen in 2 Peter 3:7 |
