    Accurately handling what rightly dividing means.

    Why was Cain's offering rejected by God?

    Here is what I posted: Finally, I believe this passage of the LORDS respect for Abel's offer, implies: That with divine approval, God shot fire from heaven onto Abel's offering. Also see Lev 9:23-24, 1 Kings 18:22-38, 1 Chron 21:26, 2 Chron 7:1) I said ""I believe"" ""it implies"" & then gave...
