Bible Question: Why was Abel's sacrifice better than Cain's? |
Bible Answer: Abel gave God the better offering. He gave Him the best of his flock, while Cain gave some of his fruit from the soil as an offering. What Abel brought coast him somthing,the first born of his flock, the healthiest, the fattest, whithout a spot or blemish. He gave to God the best of what he had. That shows where his heart was with God. Cain without any effort or reverance for God gave some fruit....... some fruit, he held back from God some of the best. That shows where his heart was with God. GEN4:2-5 hope this helps. God Bless |
