il; Abel’s Faith and th^e
I® Way of Cain, i i
By REV. GEORGE E. GUILRE :j
Extension Department, Moody
Institute, Chicago.
TEXT—By faith Abel offered un4b Ood
a more excellent sacrifice than Csftn, by
which he obtained witness that tm waa
righteous, God testifying of hia gUta.—
Heb. 11:4.
The way at Cain or the way ofiAbel?
The way of the flesh or the vmy of
the Spirit? The
tway of selflfright
eousness or the
rlghteo u s me s W?
The way of£ man’s
and human merit
Here, between
these brothers, lies the question of the
way of salvation and approach to God.
I. Wlsether God spoke dlrejctly to
Abel or indirectly through hia father,
Adam, is not revealed, but since “by
faith’’ he ottered his sacrifice and
since “faith eometh by heating and
hearing by the Word of Gad,” it is
certain that Abel had hea/d God’s
wgrd. God had spoken anil he be
lieved what He said.
And Cain, as well as Abet knew of
God’s provision for Adam and Eve:
The garments of animal-skins, made
by God’s own hands, to cover their
nakedness and to displace their flg
leaf aprons, proclaiming that man’*
efforts to fit himself for God’s pres
ence are futile and insulting; thnt he
must have a suitable garment to wear
there; that it must be of God’s own
providing and that It can he had only
through death and the shedding of
blood. Thus Abel, believing God’s
word, “brought of the firstlings of his
flock a more excellent sacrifice.” It
is God’s estimation: “More excellent”
because It was another of those long
shadows of the cross cast upon that
distant-day, and because wlint Abel’s
faith saw through the haze of distance
and what his faith really brought was
Christ. And “God testified of his
gifts” by sending the fire to consume
the sacrifice that rose in turn as a
sweet savor to Him.
There was a place of worship as
well as away. God’s presence was
manifest In the shekinah between the i
cherubim at Eden’s gate, and His in
flexible righteousness was there re
vealed. And there It was, coming In
the way of righteousness, that Abel
was nccepted and obtained witness
that he was righteous, “righteous by
faith,” accepted of God on the ground
of sacrifice. Laying his hands upon
the head of the lamb he transferred
hisyslns to that Innocent substitute.
Thus hath our God “laid upon Him
the Iniquity of us all," and beneath
the awful load He bowed His head
and died, “the just for the unjust.”
, God has prescribed the way of ap
’ preaching Him and there Is no other.
“Neither Is there salvation In any oth
er for there Is none other name under j
heaven given among men whereby we j
must be saved.”
ill. Nothing is revealed as to the
relative goodness of these brothers.
For all we know Gain may have been
the better. Perhaps, today, he wonld
shine as a leading citizen, mofpl and
upright and even religious, but hating
“the religion of the shambles,” as the
enemies of the cross have designated
onr holy Christianity, In their blind
ness and hardness of heart overlook
ing what is written about "counting
the blood of the covenant an unholy
thing.” But Cain did not believe God’s
word and rejected the divinely ap
pointed way for his own. His offering
was doubtless more costly and more
pleasing to the eye than Abel’s, his
altar piled high with the precious
fruits of the ground. "A just God will
surely accept It,” he cried, “behold
the labor of my hands.” Ah, Cain,
that very toil of thine was a token of
the curse 1 The very ground whose
fruit thou didst bring lay under the
curse 1 Alas! Cain, with all his up
rightness and religion, did not know
the reality of human sin In its
hatefulness to a holy God who alone
has found away to deal with It And
no fire of God touched the “vain ob
lation.” It was rejected by God, who
nevertheless pleaded with the self
righteous and angry man —pleaded
In long-suffering patience and love:
“If thou doest not well, a sin offer
ing coucheth at the door.” Yea,
“coucheth,” as already provided by God,
not to be hunted for, It was at the
very door. Thus God pleads with the
sinner stllj. “Come now and let us
reason together, saith the Lord.”
“Now then are we ambassadors for
Christ as though God did beseech by
us, we pray you therefore In Christ’s
stead, be ye reconciled to God.” »
Cain’s was the first attempt’ since
Adam’s, to approach God “without
the shedding of blood,” by away at
his own devising. It 1s the way of
religion opposed to Christ It Is the
way of human pride opposed to the
way of self-abasement. It Is the way
of self-rightousness that refuses to
find at Jesus’ cross God’s own right-,
eousness. It Is the denial of God’s re- [
vealed will and the interposing of the
will of the flesh. :
But his attempt was not the last.
So popular 1 has his way become that |
It has acquired bis name, and multi
tudes of blinded men and woman are
treading It today. J’There is a wax

Appeals to Our |
Hearing ~ hi
By DR. HENRY OSTROM ’/ i i
(I Extension Department, Moody Bible I
Institute, Chicago.
I TEXT—Ho that hath ears to hean leti
him hear.—Mark 4:9.
j The air of our cities Is full of!
sounds, some of melody and abme of!
madness. On all!
8 hands the preach-j
the rumble nndi
disclosed the 1m- 1
portance of thel
words so often ut
tered by our Lord:!
“He that hath
ears to hear, let
him hear.” Yet
though the clang- 1
, or may reveal,
some truth and the music of the finest!
Instruments may reveal some more,
, what wealth of truth would remain!
unexpressed If we heard only these. 1
Far deeper and of more importance!
I tha n these sounds Is the appeal for;
[ our hearing made by Truth, whether it!
be lesser truth, greater truth, or. ex
alted truth.
| 1. There Is the appeal to the deaf. 1
“Having ears, hear ye not” (Marki
8:18). For what was the ear formed,!
|lf not for hearing? But here it is fafi-|
| Ing to function. Tli,& speaker is the
j Son of God; the result Is as If He!
hacj not spoken. As well look for a 1
| harvest of grain on a frozen lake!,
| Physically, deafness Is a great afflic
tion, but indescribably worse Is spirit- 1
ual deafness. To such, as If with the!
force of thunder may the words be!
'said:-“He that bath ears to hear, let
hint hear.”
2. There Is the appeal to the heed-;
J less hearers: “Take heed thatyouj
hear,” says Jesus (Mark 4:24). No
man can hear everything at once. He!
mqst, therefore, hear some things and!
not hear others. It Is his duty to!
distinguish. You may hear “jazz”!
until your very soul seeni3 to dance
the jig of hysteria. You may hear
vulgarity until your very soul seems
septic. Or, you may hear truth un
til your very soul .declares “Forever,
O Lord, Thy wtord is settled In
heaven.” Our subtle adversary Is so’
given to counterfeiting the good, that
we must even distinguish between
God’s Word and all partial or frac-|
J tional substitutes for it As a drop
, of Ink will stain a glass of water, so|
truth will be blackened by the admix-!
ture of falsehood.
3. There Is -partial hearing. “Jesj*
spake the word unto them as
were able to hear” (Mark 4:38). Ever
must we expect to meet thts condition.
Ever will there be more than we can!
hear. But there Is the Incentive to,
listen eagerly, to listen alertly for the,
truth. It Is with reference to this
that Jesus Is speaking his parables.'
He has attentive listeners. It Is the!
picture of the teacher whose pupils;
are earnest students. But note the!
expression, “as they were able toj
hear.” Here yon find truth, not run
ning away from the listener, and not l
standing still until welcomed, but rath-'
er, pleading, appealing, entreating tha|
listener to receive it, and more. Can
you bear more? then you shall have lt,l
Who could think of thts without long
ing to be a good hearer? You see. It Is
a question of being able, and as the
athlete Increases his ability by his
exercises, that he may succeed thq
better When in the contest, so may our
ability to hear be Increased as we give
attention to the truth.
4. “Hear Him!” (Mark 9:7). That!
voice from the cloud of glory and thej
Mount of Transfiguration declaring:;
I “This is My beloved Son; hear Him,”!
told in each of the three first Gospels,
was more than a passing announce
-1 ment. In that miniature of the king-.
1 dom of God, the announcement was
1 made as If to declare that In the time
! of His reign, men will recognize the
j authority which It carries. Men must!
! come to realize tjiat Christ must be!
| heard. If they will not hear Him as
; Savior, then they must hear Him asi
Ruler and Judge. But that voice was
I uttered, too, as an appeal to souls,
Including yours and mine. Only one'
could walk among us and claim aaj
very man: “I am the Truth.” The ap
peal then is to hear Him. It means
that we turn a deaf ear to the ftaita-j
tlons, the shams, the falsehoods, and 1
listen to the truth. “Hear HUn,” call-i
Ing: “Come unto Me, all ye that labor,
and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest.” Hear Him saying: “I am!
the "Good Shepherd, the Good Shap-;
herd layeth down His life for the.
sheep.” Hear Him telling His own:
“I go to prepare a place for you," and
If I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come again and receive you unto
Myself.” Hear Him In his assuring
words: “I will not leave you comfort
less; I will come to you.” “He that
1 hath ears to hear, let him hear.” You
have heard what He did, you have
heard who He Is, you have heard what
He said, you have heard what you
need; but have you heard Him? Only
one voice amid the noises offers peace
—“peace through the blood of the
Cross.”
“Hast thou heard him, aeen Him, known
Him?
1 Is not thine ft captured heart?
. Chief among ten thousand owned him,
j Joyful, chose the better part?” (
