📖 KEY PASSAGES:

Genesis 4:1-16 - Complete story of Cain and Abel
Hebrews 11:4 - Abel offered by faith
1 John 3:12 - Why Cain murdered Abel
Hebrews 12:24 - Jesus's blood speaks better things than Abel's

🎯 THE CRITICAL DIFFERENCE:

*ABEL:* Brought firstborn lamb (blood sacrifice) + came by FAITH = ACCEPTED
*CAIN:* Brought crops (no blood) + came by WORKS = REJECTED

The issue wasn't the TYPE of offering - it was the HEART behind it. Abel came God's way through faith and blood. Cain came his own way through works. God accepted faith, rejected works.

⚠️ GOD'S WARNING TO CAIN:

"If you do not do well, sin lies at the door. Its desire is for you, but you should rule over it." (Genesis 4:7)

Sin progression: Jealousy → Anger → Murder
Cain didn't rule over sin. He let it in. It grew. It killed.

✝️ ABEL'S BLOOD vs JESUS'S BLOOD:

Abel's blood cried for VENGEANCE
Jesus's blood speaks of MERCY

Abel's sacrifice pointed forward to the need for blood
Jesus's sacrifice fulfilled that need FOREVER

🔑 LESSONS FOR TODAY:

1. The WAY you worship matters - not all approaches to God are valid
2. Come through BLOOD (Jesus) not WORKS (yourself)
3. Sin grows if not dealt with - rule over it early
4. We ARE our brother's keeper - love matters
5. Only faith in Jesus's blood saves - not religion or good works

Perfect for: Bible study, understanding Old Testament, learning about worship, faith vs works, why Jesus had to die, Old Testament foreshadowing Jesus.
