Personal Application:
Following Satan never leads to happiness; nothing good ever comes from it. I
could do a little better in my life separating myself from the ways of the adversary
now Im not saying that Im going around sinning all willy-nilly, but I feel at times it
can be easy to take the situation lightly. I can do a better job consciously thinking
about the consequences of sinning.
Additional Information:
I find the belief differences between the LDS faith and the modern Christian
faith fascinating. If you think about it, the Christians only have the bible to
reference. From LDS.org we learn that Cain was a rebellious child at heart and he
loved Satan more than God; this is why God was unhappy with his offeringCain
obeyed Satan in giving his sacrifice rather than God. I wanted to see how Christians
explained why God was unhappy with Cains sacrifice (because they only have the
bible to read from, and it doesnt give very many clues). The first website I found,
which Ill let speak for the entire Christian population, lists four choices of
explanations: Gods sovereign choice, non-blood sacrifice, poor quality, and attitude
problem. None of these explanations seem very concrete, Im glad we have a couple
extra canons!
