Excerpt from At Jesus Feet: A Series of Papers on Christian Doctrine, Life, and Work
Acceptance with God, however, has from the beginning been striven after by vain oblations. Cain sought it by bringing for an offering the fruits which he, a fallen creature, had obtained by the sweat of his brow from an earth accursed for his father's sin. And his pharisaic children from generation to generation have followed in his steps, although prophets and apostles have testified against them: When they fast I will not hear their cry' and when they offer burnt-offering and an oblation, I will not accept them. Will He regard your persons saith the Lord of hosts. Who is there among you that would shut the doors for nought? Neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the Lord of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand. Thus have they loved to wander.
