The Contrast Between Cain and Abel: Faith vs. Works

This text explores the Biblical narrative of Cain and Abel, highlighting the stark contrast between two types of 'religion.' Cain represents a faith based on good works and human approval, while Abel's faith hinges on the blood of Christ and His redemptive work. It references Hebrews 11:4, illustrating how Abel's sacrifice was favored by God, and emphasizes Enoch's faith leading to his translation. Furthermore, it reflects on the genealogy of the Patriarchs and the meanings behind their names, culminating in Noah’s hope amidst despair.
