What do you know about the first murder?
The first murder was committed when Cain slew Abel in the book of Genesis. What the Bible tells us is Cain was jealous over his brother's sacrafice pleased God while Cain's did not. People have killed for much less. The Bible tells us God asked Cain the whereabouts of Abel and Cain answered 'Am I my brother's keeper?' But Abel's blood cried out to God from the Earth where it was spilled. God exiled Cain to the land of Nod.
Why does god mark Cain?
God set a mark on Cain because God had mercy on Cain. After pronouncing Cain's punishment, and hearing Cain's reply - "My punishment is more than I can bear.", God put a mark on Cain - Genesis 4.15. And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
Were Adam and Eve to show their love for God after the Fall?
Yes. You can see that God instituted the sacrificial system, not with Moses, but with Adam and Eve after the fall when you look at what happened between Cain and Abel.Genesis 43And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:5But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.How did they know to bring offerings unto God?
What part of abel did God tell Cain cries out to you from the ground?
His blood.
Did Cain know that he had to offer a blood sacrifice?
Scripture does not clearly state the Adam and/or Eve ever had "Sacrifice Protocol 101" with Cain and Abel. Although I have heard it taught that because God slayed animals to make tunics for Adam and Eve this indicated a clear need for a blood sacrifice atoning for sin. This is the most prominent and accepted teaching I have heard. I think the scriptures state the real reason for Abel's acceptance and Cain's rejection in their offerings was due the place in their heart God occupied. The Word of God records (KJV) that And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. And in the process of time.(As the boys grew old enough to worship God) that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. (from the produce that Cain was growing, Cain brought a portion to God as an offering). And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. (Abel too, brought an offering. The firstlings ((FIRSTFRUITS)) of his flock. Abel showed God that God was most important to him. Abel offered the firstfruits of his flock and Cain showed God that He, (God) held a lesser place in his life because the offering was a portion of the fruit of the ground and not the "firstfruits". God has a odd belief that it is all about Him, and that He ought to be First in the lives of His creation. Abel displayed this preeminent position to God and was accepted both he and his sacrifice. Cain on the other hand showed lesser reverence and his offering was rejected, but God did let him know that if he did better (held God dearer) he too would be accepted. This too is what we are guilty of when the World gets it's portion of our FIRST 90% and God gets HIS 10% last from our checkbook. Faithful tithers CAN live under a curse too...
What was the reason in the Bible for God changing his mind and allowing us to eat meat?
The earliest reference was when God rejected Cain's farm produce sacrifice and accepted Abel's Animal sacrifices. Genesis 4:3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. (4:3-5) 4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: And the Lord had respect unto Abel." God likes Abel's dead animals better than Cain's fruits and vegetables. Why? Well, no reason is given, but it probably has something to do with the amount of pain, blood, and gore involved.
How did Cain and Abel worship God?
by Offerings: Genesis 4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 4:2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 4:3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 4:5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
In the Bible what did God mean when he saidWhat if your brothers blood cries out to me from the ground?
Gen:4:10: And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground. It is purely symbolic language. It is intended to allude to Cain's obvious crime , and the justice that screams to be fulfilled.
