This history was recorded, not merely to alarm, but to cause poor sinners to fly to the blood, that speaketh better things than the blood of Abel. Hast thou to this moment, hated both God and his worshippers? is it not an infinite mercy, he has not cursed thee like Cain and banished thee from his presence? If you are brought to fly to the blood of Christ, you will find it speaks better things than the blood of Abel. Every drop of Abel's blood cried for vengeance on the head of Cain; but the blood of Christ pleads for the pardon and salvation of all who come unto God by him.
