This lesson from Hebrews 11:4 centers on Abel as the first human example of genuine faith. Abel’s offering was accepted by God because it followed God's revealed plan for atonement—through blood sacrifice—pointing to Christ’s future sacrifice. In contrast, Cain tried to approach God on his own terms, representing false religion and human effort. Though Abel died for his faith, his testimony still speaks today: true worship requires obedience, and salvation comes only through God’s provision. The lesson calls believers to embrace faith rooted in God’s Word, not human reasoning.
