The patterns of the past shall arise again as a witness - if there is no transformation of heart, no shift in character, no renewal of mind, then what was shall be again. The cycle will not break, and none shall stand to accuse, for the seeds sown shall bear their due harvest. Galatians 6:7 (NLT) - “Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. This passage and others suggest that God’s acceptance of Abel and rejection of Cain had to do with the attitudes of their hearts.
