CAIN AND ABEL TWINS SKIN
CAIN AND ABEL TWINS FREE

Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. When our sins are washed away by the blood of Jesus Christ, our conscience is not seared and when we sin we know it and feel ashamed.ДЎ John 3:11-12 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Cain, having sin upon him, was not remorseful for what he did. ItвЂ™s probable that Cain may have said, вЂњIf you want a blood sacrifice, here you go.вЂќ Maybe not in those exact words. Being a mother of three boys I can imagine how the conversation went. God tried to explain that that is not what happened.Д¬ain went to talk to Abel. Cain, being the first born, was afraid that Abel was trying to steal his birthright by being a suck up. But since he wasnвЂ™t sin free, a sin offering was provided for him to give.

God told Cain that if he were sin free than his offering would have been accepted. Therefore, CainвЂ™s offering did not atone for his sins and so he was still carrying them. But without the shedding of blood sins were not forgiven. Otherwise he wouldnвЂ™t have gotten so mad and jealous. Cain genuinely wanted to please God with that offering. So many christians today believe that their works will вЂњget them into heavenвЂќ. The problem there is that your works are not what saves you from sin. Perhaps that is why Cain thought it was a good enough offering for God, because he worked so hard on it. Growing a garden requires a lot of work on your part to dig, weed, and harvest. You wouldnвЂ™t give your king a raggedy half dead gift, would you? Growing an animal really doesnвЂ™t require much from you. Sacrificing or giving up this income was a great leap of faith that God would provide. They were pretty much the income of the family. These flocks were used for food and for selling/trading. One of the reasons God requires the first of the flock is because that shows faith that He will continue the flock. Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. Of course, I am only giving a crash lesson here because the offerings required certain actions and all that will need a whole other study. This was equivalent to our modern day christian tithing. The burnt offering first, which was an animal consumed in the fire, and then the grain offering, which only part of it went into the fire and the rest given to the priests. Usually grain offering were accompanied with a burnt offering. God did allow grain offerings, however, they did not atone for sin. God was pleased with AbelвЂ™s offering and not with CainвЂ™s offering. AbelвЂ™s offering is mentioned as the firstling, the first of the newest flock. Neither of these offerings mention it is the best of the crop or flock. Cain being a tiller of the ground brought a vegetation offering while Abel, being a keeper of the sheep, brought an animal offering. It is obvious that Adam and Eve did offerings and taught their children to do the same. Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood and without shedding of blood is no remission. From then on, a blood sacrifice was to be made to cover sin.

The first sacrifice was when God killed an animal for itвЂ™s skin to cover the naked Adam and Eve. And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. Genesis 4:3-8 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. Adam and Eve, being new to sexual desires, were probably unaware of that causing pregnancy. Why wouldnвЂ™t this be the same way? I suppose it is still possible they actually were twins but, it is more likely that they were born very close together. However, it is my belief that they are not twins because everywhere else in the bible states who are twins. The Greek word says that she вЂњcontinuedвЂќ to bare Abel. Now the wording on this seems to say that Abel was a twin because it doesnвЂ™t say that Adam knew her again like most verses. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.ДЄdam and Eve had their first children. Genesis 4:1-2 And Adam knew Eve his wife and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.
