Yep you missed it now here is the actual quote:
Quote
This came from a Discipleship Training lesson recently where it was pointed out that Cain's offering is explained in Leviticus 2:1 as being a gratitude offering by which he testifies his belief in God as Lord of the universe and dispenser of secular blessings.

Now granted he said "offering" now if your going have a shibboleth over word choice then fine Sojourner never said sacrifice. I said sacrifice, because I maintain what Abel did was a sacrifice of his firstling sheep/goat flock even though it is called an offering.

Peter

If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself. Augustine of Hippo
