Part of Zac Poonen · 311 of 379
Summary
The central message is that God accepts offerings based on the heart's attitude, not the offering itself. Drawing from the story of Cain and Abel, the speaker emphasizes that giving God one's very best—whether it's time, energy, or material goods—stems from a heart that recognizes God's prior bestowment. Furthermore, the sermon warns that even a perfect offering will be rejected if the individual is unreconciled with their brother, citing Matthew 5.
