The two brothers, Cain and Abel, have submitted their offerings to God. But God only accepts Abel’s offering and rejects Cain’s. Cain refuses to listen to God and repent.

Cain is cursed forever from the presence and fellowship with God.

It is important to remember that it was Adam’s sin ALONE that brought the sentence of death.
