The Difference Grace Makes

Genesis 4: 1-2; Hebrews 11: 4

 

How did Abel have faith in God?  The same way every sinner has faith (Ephesians 2: 1, 8-11.)  Abel was born of the Spirit of God. He was given faith by the grace of God.  Abel was the workmanship of God, created in Christ Jesus.  When he offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice he performed a good work which God before ordained that Abel should walk in.  By grace when God speaks: faith hears, faith believes, and faith obeys. Faith stands only on the rock, Christ Jesus.  Faith trusts in what the finger of God writes, and reasons, this way, "The mouth of the Lord has spoken it" (Isaiah 1: 20.)
