Cain and Abel

Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg delves into the story of Cain and Abel from a biblical perspective. He notes that while there is a heretical interpretation that suggests Cain was Satan's offspring, there is no merit to this belief. Cain's offering was not accepted by God, possibly because his heart wasn't in the right place, while Abel's was. However, Gregg stresses that the focus should be on following God's word and instructions rather than on innovative religious systems or preferred methods of worship. The story of Cain and Abel highlights the importance of adhering to God's standards and avoiding sin.
