Messages For A New Year: 3.True Faith Is Putting God First - Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker uses the story of Cain and Abel to teach that true faith is what pleases God, not religious ritual or the size of the offering. He emphasizes that Abel's offering was accepted because it was an offering of faith, which is demonstrated by giving God one's very best, rather than merely giving what is convenient or what others expect. True faith requires dedicating one's whole life and best efforts to God.

God accepts people based on the faith in their hearts, not the quality or quantity of their offerings. The speaker emphasizes that Abel's offering was accepted because of his faith, contrasting this with Cain's offering. True faith is demonstrated by giving the very best of what one has—time, energy, or resources—to God, and reconciliation with others is necessary before presenting any offering to God.
