Contributed by Samuel M on Oct 3, 2023

Though Abraham's tent appeared small on the outside, but his heart was a big enough place to host God and become a resting place for God.

Cain And Abel Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Mar 7, 2024

Even though Abel’s life was short, his faith still speaks. Abel’s blood calls out for justice from God. Our own sin demands justice from God, and it was our sin that put Jesus on the cross.
