OOl,PEN TEXT—‘'Whosoever hatetli Ills brother 13 a murderer.’' I John 3:15. In due process of time and in obedience to God's command (Gen, 1;28)., Eve bore Adam two sons, each a very different type of manhood. Mothers ought to ponder upon the words of Eye, “X have- gotten a man with the help of Jehovah.” Parents should realize that it Is God who Sends them their children, e, g., by his hell), and it is to him they must give 'account for their nurture . and up­ bringing. TJpoa reaching manhood one, Abel, became a shepherd, and the other, Cain, became & farmer. The difference in their characters, not their occupations* is illustrated by the sac­ rifices they brought to offer unto" God. Although it is not recorded, it is highly probable that God had com­ manded that there should be an offer­ ing of blood. Sin had entered the world and we are told in Hebrews 9:22 and 10:19, 30, that only' by the shedding of "hlqod is there any re­ mission of sini The blood atonement may he repugnant to some superficial thinkers, but it is not in the sight of God. It Is God's way. It can be traced in the early traditions of nearly every religion. , Cain’s Offering. - The fundamental fault was really In. Cain .and not in his offering. Had' Cain's heart been right he would have made a .proper sacrifice that would have been acceptable in God’S sight, X. John'3.- 12, We are told that Abel’s offe’-’ ng was of faith,.Heb. 11:4, and hence it was a more excellent .sacri­ fice than .that, of,Gain, for "without faith it is impossible to please. God.’' The firstling of the flock, the.Iamb, was a type of that true sacrifice of­ fered before the foundations of the world, John 1:29. There is another fundamental difference between these two offerings. Cain’s offering repre­ sented the labor of his o>vn hands and was much more pleasing to the eyes than that of Abel. God’s disrespect for Cain's offering was due to sin, vv. 3, “Sin crouch- eth at the door.” Here sin is pictur­ ed as a wild beast lying at the door and ready to spring upon him who first •gives entrance; Gad dealt In mercy with Cain, even though he did not accept of his offering, but Cain did not conquer the sin crouching at his door and therefore the terrible denouement. , J From the, marginal reading- (R, V0 Of Verse eight and also-from the Sop- tuagint wogather that Cain Invei­ gled Abel into the country, having de­ liberately planned to wreak his ven­ geance upon him, It being impossible to do so in the place where the bsc - Tilco had been offered. Cain’s anger, not only against God, but. against his brother whom God had accepted, is evidenced today by the way the world hates those whom God accepts, John 15:19. Cain slew Abel. because his own works-had been evil and those of his brother righteous. The Old, Old Question, God gqvo Cain an opportunity to confess his sin (v. 9). Seo I. John 11:9. As passion subsided Cain "saw,” and "heard” even though he lied while trying to escape a just punishment. God's startling question has been-ringing down through‘ these ages, "Where la thy brother?" Broth, era are being wronged,. oppressed, cheated, and defrauded. Brothers ate being lost for whom Christ died. In­ dustrial oppression, "man’s Inhumani­ ty to. man," and the "blood of right­ eous Abel,” shall bo, is being, and has been required of the nation, the age, yea the individual. Cain saw his lie Was detected and so tried to excuse himself. Millions have repeated hiB weak excuse, "Am I- my brother's keeper?” And God has thundered back the reply, "Yes.” Wo are debtors to all. The penitence of Cain was riot over his guilt, hut rather over, the degree of his punishment, vv, 13, 14. Murder always demands vengeance. _Note, however, the marginal reading, “mine iniquity is greater than can ,be for­ given." Thank God we have a media­ tor of a hotter covenant, Heb.„.12:24. Cain, made a mistake-in assuming that God could be localized in one place and that he who must become a wan­ derer in the land, “ tlie first colonist,” would of necessity be separated from God's protecting care. There was the added fear Of himself -being slain; “how doth conscience make cowards of us ali,” Wri therefore seo in this lesslon, I , The Sons, vv. 1, 2; 11., The Sacrifice, vv. 3, 7; III., tho Slain Brother, vv. 8*10; IV., The Sentence, vv. 11-15,^ ■ For -the younger pupils emphasize jealousy and Its developments, The fact that we are. keepers of our broth­ ers as wo deal with the sins of the day.
