Cain And Abel — A Contrast

R. L. Whiteside



Sometimes a man's confidence is in himself and his own way, rather than in Jehovah and His way. That was the trouble with Cain. He believed in the existence of Jehovah, but he undertook to worship Him in his own way. He thought to make improvement in His worship, or else he thought his way was as good as God's way. His confidence was in self, not in God.

Abel did what God said because he had faith in God. Any man now will seek to follow God's way if he has faith in God. Faith never seeks to improve on God's way, nor offers any substitute for what God requires. There are too many Cain's in the religious world.
